It’s a real doghouse — an Elsternwick home boasting its very own pet bedroom is looking to collar a new owner.

With a $2.6m-$2.8m asking range, the Victorian-era pad at 17 Orrong Rd has a pet parlour that’s paw-sitively stylish.

Tass Bantick is helping her parents sell the property, that has five bedrooms for humans, which they have owned for about six decades.

As part of the process, Ms Bantick has overseen cosmetic improvements at the 1800s-built house including kitchen upgrades and a bathroom renovation.

Ms Bantick said her own rescue dog, a Kelpie mix named Lily, inspired her to convert a room that her father, a keen photographer, had previously used to develop film into the pet bedroom.

Set on a 584sq m block, 17 Orrong Rd, Elsternwick, was built in the 1800s.

The kitchen has been recently updated.


The popularity of adopting a furry companion during Victoria’s Covid lockdowns was another deciding factor.

“It’s basically a room on its own, it has fully-tiled floors, a splashback and a sink to bathe your dog or cat in,” Ms Bantick said.

“There’s enough space for bedding, feeding and a play area.”

The home retains many of its period features.

Ms Bantick said sitting outside below the palm trees was a peaceful spot to enjoy a coffee or some quiet time.

Two in-floor air vents ensure the four-legged resident will always have a fresh leash on life.

And the pet parlour is located near an open-plan living and dining area, meaning the animal inhabitant can enjoy a meal when their owner does.

“If you have a dog and cat who get on well, they could live in there together,” Ms Bantick said.

She added that Elsternwick was a great suburb for dog owners thanks to its proximity to the beach and parks with designated off-leash times.

A studio, home office and gym separate to the main house.

The home is within walking distance of Elsternwick train station, trams, buses, cafes, bars, parks and schools.


BigginScott Elsternwick director Bill Stavrakis said he had never sold a home with a pet parlour before, but that it has proved to be popular with buyers.

“People have loved it, I think it’s a bit novel but most people have a pet these days, either a dog, cat or a bird,” Mr Stavrakis said.

“A couple of families have said their pets would love that little spot, whether to eat their food or get tucked away at night.”

The house, which also features a separate studio, gym and home office, will be auctioned on May 18.
