53 Bridge Street
Port Melbourne

Never before offered to the market, this landmark Hawthorn brick Victorian is a rare opportunity within the distinguished Catherine Terrace (c.1890). Once tied to the McCormack family of Cricketer’s Arms Hotel fame, its fastidiously restored façade gives way to a striking double-storey transformation, where heritage beauty and contemporary refinement sit in perfect harmony. Every detail has been carefully curated, delivering sophistication, adaptability, and timeless appeal, culminating in a large rear courtyard offering secure pedestrian ROW access to Esplanade East and Edwards Park.

Behind the restored façade and tessellated entrance a modern vision unfolds, leading through a wide hallway crowned with an architectural skylight to a spectacular open-plan living and dining domain, where sliding glass doors create an effortless transition to a private courtyard. The sleek stone surfaces of the kitchen complement the bright and refreshing tonality of the home, framing a space ideal for entertaining with premium Miele appliances.

Built-in robes and an adjoining bathroom accompany a ground-floor bedroom, whilst the suspended oak staircase ascends to two additional bedrooms with robes, including one with a rooftop city-view terrace. A second bathroom completes the first floor, with further highlights including double glazing, hydronic heating, split system AC, Blum soft-close storage a large storage-rich laundry, a alarm system, and a water tank. Promising an unrivalled lifestyle in an iconic setting, it is a short walk from Bay Street’s incredible cafes and restaurants, Port Melbourne Beach, excellent schools, the light rail and lush parks.
