5 Jervois Street St Kilda East

Hidden behind flowering rose bushes in a quiet street lined with heritage homes, this freestanding single-fronted Victorian is alive with character and possibility. It has the bones, the period beauty and the setting, ready for someone imaginative to take it somewhere extraordinary.

Step through the arched hallway framed by soaring ceilings and Baltic pine floors that speak to its era. Two generous bedrooms sit at the front, one with the charm of a fireplace, before the home opens to a relaxed living room with another fireplace, and a kitchen awaiting reinvention. A clawfoot bath awaits revival in the bathroom, with laundry taps offering everyday practicality.

Out back, a paved courtyard and shed offer the framework for a magical alfresco retreat. There’s also scope to extend upward (STCA) and open the rear to light and air, creating a seamless blend of past and present.

Moments from Carlisle Street’s cafés and bakeries, trams and trains, Alma Park’s recreation, Chapel Street’s vibrancy and St Kilda Beach, this is your chance to shape a true original into something unforgettable.
