Set on a generous allotment, well-presented and ideally placed to take advantage of the area's superb lifestyle choices, it's difficult to imagine a more perfect entry-level opportunity in this ultra-connected precinct than this much loved, warm and welcoming family home.
Tightly held since 1963, it retains beautifully preserved classical detail. Leadlight windows, fireplaces, polished Baltic pine floors and high ceilings adorned with roses and decorative cornices are carefully blended with contemporary updates while still offering scope for you to introduce your own cosmetic touches.
Fresh and bright throughout, thanks to fresh paint in neutral tones, the home's central hallway introduces a traditional layout opening to three generous bedrooms, including one with a striking decorative original fireplace.
Complementing the bedrooms is a refined lounge anchored by a fireplace and flowing through to a generously proportioned dining area. It sits opposite a sleek contemporary kitchen that features a glass splashback, stone benchtops over soft close cabinetry and a premium 900 mm Ilve cooker.
A rear yard that over-delivers on space and possibilities introduces a relaxing alfresco area, the ideal spot to sit and make your future plans, established garden beds and a large powered workshop.
A right-of-way to the rear introduces possibilities for off-street parking (STCA) to complement the driveway in the front yard while ducted heating, an a/c unit, laundry with storage, two water tanks and auto roller shutters are welcome extras.
Located for lifestyle, there is a choice of bus routes at either end of the street, Gillon Oval Playground and Brunswick North Primary School are just footsteps away; the tram on Melville Road is within an easy walk, as is Anstey Station. The tram and the eclectic mix of dining, shopping and café options along Sydney Road are a relaxed stroll away!
