Centre of the city; worlds away.

Welcome to Melrose - a niche pair of townhouses that bring serenity into central city living. From the road, the mirror-image properties assert their style with beautifully clad tray and cedar, grounding the design while adding depth and character. Inside, their design transcends from architectural feat to quiet retreat. With the CBD on the doorstep, the hustle and bustle of the city has been cleverly considered to feel worlds away. With a soothing, neutral palette, these three-bedroom, two-bathroom homes have been designed as true family spaces, balancing everyday life with an undeniable sense of calm.

In the kitchen, dark cabinetry contrasts against white marbled surfaces and pale floorboards. From here, the space flows into light-infused dining and living areas; each home features a built-in fireplace and two sets of sliders. Tranquillity lives in every room and extends outdoors to what has been nicknamed the ‘oasis retreat’. Private and secluded timber decks encourage relaxation and offer a chance to escape busy lives. Upstairs, the main bedroom suites resemble light-filled galleries, with soaring ceilings, contrasting shades of pale and dark, and dressing rooms with ensuites that immerse you in the sense of a luxury spa. This is a haven designed for everyday living - and some much-needed R&R. Centre of the city; worlds away.

Professional Reviews

“Matt Harrison Construction undertook the building contract to restore our extensively earthquake damaged 19th century home and has done a thorough and professional job. I found him to be very helpful and always happy to explain ‘in layman’s terms’ some of the technical processes that were involved. We worked through many issues that inevitably arose over the 18 month period of repair. It seemed as though he worked ‘over and above’ to achieve the best result.”
