A Victorian cottage has been transformed into a lively and quirky home with an operable sculpture of the freight elevator hanging above the living room.
Located just 25 minutes west of Melbourne’s city centre, this quaint semi-detached house is the most colorful house on the outskirts of Yarraville Street.
With contrasting bright orange-gray accents, a rainbow mini-library for passers-by to take their books with, and retro-style decorative doors, the eclectic home is as interesting inside as it is outside.
A Victorian cottage has been whimsically renovated and stands out on the outskirts of Yarraville Street, with its bright orange stripes, rainbow mini-library to grab passersby’s books, and retro-style decorative doors.
The quirky home is located just 25 minutes west of Melbourne’s city centre, and features a working sculpture of an overhead elevator suspended above the living room.
Sliding glass doors flood the living room with natural light and open to the courtyard covered with PVC tubular flower pots hanging from the fence.
The living area also features a home workspace large enough for two people to work from home, polished concrete floors and a gorgeous fully operational freight elevator hanging from the ceiling.
From the front door, a wide corridor with a world map covering the walls and floor leads past two bedrooms and a bathroom, leading to the open-plan living room and kitchen.
Cladding the walls is custom wood furniture that stretches from the kitchen to the living room, an expression of two different woods, black and white.

Adding to the home’s quirkiness, the space-saving barn doors don’t go into the hallway, but slide back to reveal two cozy bedrooms.

The extravagant home is now for sale through the Expressions Interest, which ends July 29 at an asking price of $1 million to $1.1 million, and is just under $1.24 million at the suburban median.
