7 Bridge St, Brighton

Elegant and Affordable Entry Point

Offering an accessible and affordable launching pad into a tightly held neighbourhood, the effortlessly elegant Victorian cottage “Moxham” represents classic Brighton living with all the lifestyle benefits.

Free-standing and free-flowing over approx. 364sqm, turn-of-the-century charm is crystal-clear from street level. Prominently positioned behind a picture-perfect picket fence and enticing verandah, discover a deep and broad arched hallway under towering ceilings with original Baltic Pine flooring underfoot. Both bedrooms are zoned to the front of the home, generous in scope and serviced by built-in robes and ornate open fireplaces.

The home then spectacularly opens up to reveal a large and light-filled living and dining space adjoining a deluxe kitchen with a high-end Asko dishwasher. Step outside to a paved and sheltered alfresco dining area alongside a compact yard. This northeast-facing space is a perfectly private spot for a growing family, complemented by right-of-way laneway access at the rear.

Key details authentic to this lovingly preserved period home include a handsome front bullnose verandah, a distinctive pressed metal facade, elaborate timber fretwork, exquisite leadlighting, decorative cornices and artfully applied ceiling roses.

Showcasing instantly enjoyable living with a unique opportunity to restore a classic or upscale with a contemporary renovation (STCA), the convenient address sells itself. Moments from Elsternwick Primary School, North Brighton Kindergarten, Gardenvale train station and Martin Street shopping, enjoy a scenic walk to the beachfront via Elsternwick Park and the canal. Effortlessly alluring throughout, this superbly presented charmer will entice all who take the time to inspect.
