Charming 1880s Victorian with Extraordinary Potential

Steeped in tradition and brimming with a compelling sense of future opportunity, this classical, free-standing, double-fronted and solid brick Victorian residence is a grand example of what made Melbourne marvellous in the 1880s. Faithfully updated on an impressive allotment of 746 square metres (approx.) with potential car access, this is a three bedroom home that is more than comfortable for the growing family of today, whilst also offering scope for renewal or extension (STCA) in this most rewarding of blue chip locations.

Under towering ceilings, rich in character and filled with heritage, the home flows along an exquisite arched hallway to an open-plan rear that sits sympathetically with the home's origins. Merging timber benches with a Bosch dishwasher, the kitchen / meals is the home's well-designed hub that overlooks a particularly refined vestibule area. Meanwhile, a formal lounge room at the front of the home is warmed by the ambience of an open fireplace and a rear living room gazes out upon the glory of the home's backyard.

Indeed, flowing outdoors to a rear verandah, a huge backyard and a solar-heated in-ground swimming pool, the home announces itself as being well-suited to relaxed, family-friendly living and entertaining. Possible rear car access via a laneway is an important consideration too.

Added highlights include robes built-in to two bedrooms, traditional fireplaces in each bedroom, leadlight windows, ducted heating and split system cooling as well as front carport parking and driveway parking for a second vehicle.

From this outstanding location, your children can walk to an impressive selection of Melbourne's finest schools, plus proximity to both Glenferrie Rd and Cotham Rd ensure that many others are easily accessed as well, plus there is a terrific cafe culture nearby, plenty of dining and shopping at Kew Junction.
