Brimming with classic period attributes this lovely example of an unexpectedly spacious Edwardian family home is introduced by a tuck point brick façade with coloured leadlight and bay windows which has instant appeal. Coupled with its position in a period streetscape on the fringe of the prized Urquhart Estate, one of Melbourne’s finest residential precincts. Offering an outstanding opportunity to undertake further renovations and a potential extension (STCA).

The refreshed crisp white interior features high decorative ceilings and cornices, some with timber panelling and Baltic Pine floors flowing through a timber fretwork arched hallway to four bedrooms, a generous formal sitting room, study/home office and a stylish bathroom. A spacious family living and dining area includes a well-appointed kitchen with granite benchtops and premium quality Westinghouse appliances. Opening to the rear garden and external laundry. Other features include Daikin ceiling ducted heating/cooling, R/C air conditioner (living), original OFPs remote double garage/storage with rear lane access and parking permits available.

This elegant period home is ideally located close to Glenferrie Road or Camberwell Junction shops, boutiques, cafes, restaurants and the Lido or Rivoli Cinemas. Also great local amenities including numerous parklands and the electric Auburn Village; plus easy access to some of Melbourne’s finest schools and the CBD via public transport options or CityLink.
