13 Barry Street, South Yarra

Built in 1910 and reborn with architectural vision, this South Yarra solid brick residence fuses Edwardian elegance with striking contemporary design. Behind its leafy garden façade lies a three bedroom, two bathroom home defined by soaring light, flawless finishes and dramatic cathedral-style dining doors opening to a northern entertaining courtyard. At the heart of the home, a skylit living zone flows effortlessly to the showpiece dining area where a floor-to-ceiling arched black aluminium-framed window creates a spectacular focal point. The adjoining modern kitchen is finished with stone benches, stainless steel oven and dishwasher, all set within generous storage. The expansive courtyard beyond provides ample space to host guests or enjoy quiet evenings outdoors, while a roller door provides car access. Accommodation is equally impressive. A luxurious main bedroom suite offers a comprehensively fitted walk-in robe and a fully tiled ensuite with wet area featuring a freestanding bath and walk-in shower, alongside twin vanities and superb finishes. A second double bedroom showcases a classic box bay window overlooking the front garden, while a third bedroom integrates generous built-in robes. A stylish bathroom, full laundry and split system heating and air conditioning complete the layout. Only moments from Chapel and High Streets, Prahran Market and St Kilda, and with easy city access by nearby trams and trains, this superb home unites historic character with bold modern architecture in one unforgettable South Yarra address.
