82 Lewisham Road North, Prahran

Behind a picket fence and cottage gardens, the elevated façade of this distinguished period residence, 'Ramsbury', announces itself through timber fretwork, a tessellated verandah, and exquisite leadlight catching the light. Rarer still is what sits beyond: Victoria Gardens forms the rear boundary, with birdsong drifting in over the fence. Inside, the elegance and scale assert themselves immediately. Towering ceilings carry throughout, lifted by a decorative frieze, ornate cornices, and polished timber floorboards running the length of the central hallway. The first bedroom lies to the left, complete with robes, a gas fireplace and box bay windows looking out to the front landscaping. Further on, the main bedroom is set back with plantation shutters, a walk-in robe and a renovated ensuite finished in glass brick, with heating and shower. From here, the layout opens into a gracefully proportioned living and dining zone designed for both everyday life and full-house gatherings. Bespoke cabinetry flanks a gas-log fireplace, while large north-facing windows pull leafy greenery deep into the interior. Remote external awnings shade the summer sun and retain winter warmth. The adjoining kitchen is skylit, with hardwood benchtops, a dishwasher and a clear sightline across the room. A second contemporary bathroom with shower-over-bath and a concealed European laundry with excellent storage tuck neatly into the floor plan, joined by a generous hallway cupboard that keeps the daily run of things out of sight. Outside, the north-facing courtyard feels a world away. Paved underfoot and layered with established planting, it offers multiple places to sit, dine or linger, with the soft accompaniment of the parkland next door. It's private, immersive, quietly beautiful. Adding another dimension, a separately accessed studio is reached via the side gate from the street. With its own split-system air conditioner, it serves comfortably as a home office, creative workspace, consulting room or retreat for independent use, all without interrupting the main residence. An external storeroom adds further practicality, while an alarm system completes a home that respects its heritage and supports modern life with equal conviction. Within the Windsor Primary School and Prahran High School zones, moments from High Street, Chapel Street, Prahran Market, trams and Prahran Station, with Wesley College, St Mary's Primary and Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic School all close by.
