A show-stopping urban castle in the heart of suburbia has twinkling city views and a unique architectural design. 

Sitting in a quiet cul-de-sac, the modern three-bedroom house is in the inner city suburb of Richmond just four kilometres east of Melbourne's city centre. 

Designed by renowned Melbourne architectural firm Morris & Pirrotta in the eighties, the home's structure is reminiscent of brutalist style with its rugged grey brick walls, clean lines, minimalist charm and an industrial feel.
