Melbourne is well-known for its spectacular inner-city warehouse conversions, but very few have the scale and proportions of this remarkable home (and connected caretakerโs cottage) in North Melbourne.
Originally a 19th-century timber mill and livery stable, the interiors enjoy soaring skylit vaulted ceilings, concrete floors, double-brick walls, bespoke cabinetry, and a kitchen that comes complete with premium integrated appliances and a vast concrete benchtop. Perhaps the most unique feature, however, is the external spiral staircase that leads to a vast rooftop deck with views out across the nearby CBD.
