2101/103 The Crescent, Port Melbourne VIC 3207

Situated in The Crescent, an exclusive circle near the beaches of Port Melbourne, this elegant townhouse is highly appealing, both in appearance and as a family home. The impressive architectural design includes large windows and French doors overlooking the parklands opposite and a tree-lined walkway on one side of the property. Located just a 3-min walk from waterfront Beacon Cove Promenade (with beacons still in place), there is Princes Pier and Sandridge Beach on one side and Station Pier and Port Melbourne Beach on the other. Swimming or walks along Bay Trail can be part of your daily routine.
The residence is modern with parapet walls offset against a low-pitched roof that appears to float above the house, but the Georgian proportions provide a stately impression. Entering via a classical porch, the entrance hall sets the scene for the rest of the home with deep timber flooring and high ceilings. This leads into a front living room with three pairs of French doors looking out on the front and side gardens and the parks beyond. There is also a formal dining alcove with yet another pair of French doors with garden views and raised floor to form an intimate dining space.
The large open-plan family and kitchen area is the joyful family hub in this home. The bright white kitchen features large north-facing windows, stainless-steel appliances including dishwasher, double sink, soft-close cabinetry and an island bench with breakfast bar¬¬. The family area enjoys a contemporary gas fireplace and ducted heating and cooling for year-round comfort, as well as more northern windows that look out on a private side garden terrace. One highlight is a large study nook with high window and plenty of cupboard storage. Another highlight is the triple glass doors that completely open onto a grand private courtyard bordered by planter boxes, lush greenery and a glorious pebbled water feature. You will enjoy BBQs with family and friends under a pergola with retractable roof.
Four carpeted bedrooms, three with ceilings fan and all host an abundance in natural light. The massive master bedroom features twin mirrored built-in robes, double French doors that step out onto a Juliet balcony, and a fully-tiled ensuite with ‘his and her’ vanity basins. The fully-tiled bathroom includes a skylight, a bath and separate hobless shower with frameless glazing. Further highlights include plantation shutters; and single remote-controlled garage with extra car space in front.
The restaurants and cafés of Bay Street are just 1 km away (with Coles 1.4 km). There is also the monthly Gasworks Farmers’ Market and iconic South Melbourne Market nearby. Monterey Walk, the delightful pathway lined with blossom trees, runs along the side of the townhouse and leads directly to the magnificent Beacon Vista Reserve and playground¬. Zoning is for Port Melbourne Primary School (800m) and Port Melbourne High School (1.1 km), with other leading schools nearby including Melbourne Grammar (4.9 km), and the selective MacRobertson Girls’ High School, Melbourne Girls Grammar and Wesley College (all within 6.5 km).
