Stupendous warehouse style, with tranquil courtyard!
Here is North Fitzroy's best-kept secret. Bordered by a bluestone lane adjoining Nicholson Street and close to the Edinburgh Gardens, this handsome red brick Victorian building, converted to a vast work-from-home and studio residence, was built as a stables, then served as the premises for Harry Evans and Sons' billiard table factory, before becoming a photographer and artist's studio. Its magnificently proportioned light-filled spaces over two levels, featuring original timber and steel industrial detail, include a massive studio (136.sq.m approx), two superbly proportioned living areas, five bedrooms (main with balcony and ensuite bathroom), a large fitted office, country-style kitchen, tiled family bathroom and several storage/utility rooms. Still offering great scope to improve.
The focal point of this unique property, overlooked by all of its major rooms, is a spectacular paved and landscaped courtyard garden with fishpond, shaded by a Scottish elm. Including hydronic heating and entry phone security, this captivating residence awaits the next phase of its life in North Fitzroy's rich history!
