19 Hornby Street, Windsor.

A Prahran landmark since 1881, this grand and imposing two-storey 4 bedroom, 3 bathroom Victorian residence offers a charming combination of period features and modern conveniences. Steeped in history, "Brabourne" was built on land originally owned by John Pascoe Fawkner, co-founder, with John Batman, of the city of Melbourne and spent a decade as the headquarters of book publishers Lloyd O'Neil and John Currey. Today, the home provides an enticing living environment with northern frontage to McIlwrick Street and is graciously laid out offering a flexible and versatile floorplan from the original marble floored entrance foyer & splendid Victorian staircase, a palatial downstairs bedroom, moving through the formal lounge room, to the built in study with library shelving - perfect for the book-lover; then through to the large formal dining with adjoining granite kitchen with bi-fold doors that glide open to a western entertaining deck and landscaped garden. Downstairs is also complemented by a separate bathroom and laundry. Moving upstairs, three further bedrooms with built in robes and two further bathrooms await. In addition, this illustrious home is light filled and well-appointed for modern living with ducted heating, split system cooling in living, dishwasher, and remote gate to the off-street parking. Located in highly sought after Windsor end of Prahran directly opposite Chris Gahan Reserve and just a short stroll away from Chapel and Greville Streets, Prahran Market, cafes, The Astor Theatre, tram routes, trains and a choice of schools, "Brabourne" is primed for a superb urban lifestyle.
