I love St Kilda West, and like Toorak, I have lived there for a while a few years back.
St Kilda West is close enough to St Kilda to walk to all the fashionable cafe's and bars, but far away enough to not notice the prostitutes and drug dealers. It's such a great place to live, across the road from the beach, as I was, and I know this street is one block away from the beach, so it wouldn't have hurt to to live in a home like this one!

They've put a butler's ceramic kitchen sink here (next to the fridge above), I love these kinds of sinks, but they are very rare in Aus...
I'm sorry, I just have no idea what this room is/was...is it a gym? is it a reading room??? *sigh*
This would have been a very expensive house to renovate, but the quality is quite evident in rooms like the bathroom and kitchen...
One of my favorite movies is The Birdcage, starring Robin Williams - one of my Top 10 actually!This home reminds of that movie, not sure why, it just does!
AND here's the Master Plan if you are so interested...
AND here's what the Agent said!
