Stunning Victorian-Era Home with Art Gallery-Like Features in Brighton Available for Sale

An exquisite circa-1890 Brighton house that has been transformed into a family sanctuary and art gallery-like home is now up for grabs. The stunning five-bedroom residence at 8 Oak Grove is currently on the market with a price guide of $4.8m-$5.2m.

The owners of this double-fronted abode enlisted Pleysier Perkins Architects to reimagine the home about a decade ago. The renovation stayed true to its Victorian-era roots while maximizing its northern orientation to flood the interiors with natural light.

According to Kay & Burton Bayside’s Tony Ryan, the renovation included a complete rebuild of the back of the house to enhance the main living zones and master suite. The owners, who have a keen eye for art, utilized the space to showcase their beautiful collection.

The property boasts a series of rooms with high ceilings, fireplaces, and a spacious living area featuring a centrepiece window overlooking an internal courtyard. The kitchen is a chef’s delight with top-of-the-line appliances and a butler’s pantry.

Outside, the home impresses with a solar-heated pool, outdoor shower, and an entertaining area complete with an outdoor fireplace and gas barbecue. The backyard is perfect for hosting intimate gatherings or large family celebrations.

The main bedroom offers views of an internal garden and includes a walk-in wardrobe and ensuite with luxurious features like underfloor heating and a stand-alone soaker bath. Upstairs, three bedrooms with Velux skylights provide cozy retreats for family members or guests.

Situated on Oak Street, the property is conveniently located near North Brighton train stations, schools, the beach, and popular local amenities. Expressions of interest for this exceptional property will close on May 14.
