12 Bell Street
Hawthorn

This superbly renovated freestanding, single-level Victorian cottage c1886 with two street frontages (Bell and Johnson Street), is an easy stroll to Glenferrie Station and Hawthorn's vibrant shopping and dining strip. This is literally a "move in and enjoy the lifestyle" proposition, in one of Melbourne's most desirable locations. Moving past a fully automated security entrance, the home includes a new hardwood bull-nose iron lacework verandah and arched period hallway on Baltic Pine floors. The two generous bedrooms feature high ceilings, period ceiling roses, cornices and matching joinery.

Living areas include a large open plan space comprising a dining room, and family room complete with OFP. In the heart of the home is a large and sleek new kitchen with stainless steel appliances, opening into a third living zone of generous proportions plus a sparkling new, sky lit bathroom and separate laundry. Leading to a rear paved courtyard opening directly to Hull Street Reserve and immediate access to the lifestyle benefits on offer in Glenferrie Road - a mere 250 metres away.

Boasting the rare benefit of two off-street parking spaces, R/C air conditioners (3), new ducted heating and new instant hot water service with the recent renovations including professional painting inside and out, new electrical wiring, plastering and restumping.

First offered in 1883 this represents an exceptional opportunity to buy into the historic sub-division, originally known as Edwards Paddock - in the heart of Hawthorn.

Great potential to add another level or a 3rd bedroom (STCA).
