153 Danks Street
Albert Park

Occupying the corner of Danks and Phillipson Streets, this solid brick Victorian residence has been extensively renovated and extended to deliver grand-scale family living, one block from the bay and moments from Albert Park Village.

Restored Baltic pine floors and high ceilings run through the wide central hallway, introducing a multi-level layout with real depth and flexibility for various stages of life. Multiple living areas include a formal living room, which flows into the expansive, casual open-plan domain at the rear, where richly stained hardwood floors and a marble-surround gas fireplace create a genuinely inviting backdrop for both family life and large-scale entertaining. The kitchen, finished with stone benchtops and Miele cooking appliances, opens via oversized sliding glass doors to a private north-facing terrace and solar-heated lap pool with a waterfall feature, while a self-contained pool house with bi-fold doors and an adjoining bathroom extends entertaining across every season.

The accommodations are equally impressive, with a ground-floor main bedroom set alongside a sitting room/parents’ retreat, complete with built-in robes, an ornate open fireplace and a travertine twin ensuite. A spacious study with storage functions as a potential fifth bedroom, complementing three upper-level bedrooms with walk-in robes, two of which enjoy sweeping city views, and each sharing a spa bathroom and a powder room.

Comprehensively appointed with ducted heating, split system air-conditioning, ornate OFPs, ducted vacuum, CCTV, keypad entry, alarm, north-facing city-view balcony, dual street entry, and secure off-street parking, this truly exceptional home sits within easy reach of bay-side trails, Albert Park Lake, MSAC, trams, Victoria Avenue's cafés and elite schools, zoned for Albert Park College and Middle Park Primary School.
