An eye-catching façade highlights this charming semi-detached Federation cottage c1910, one of the finer examples of its era and enviably situated within a period streetscape in the prized Urquhart Estate underpinning its value. Surrounded by low-maintenance, hedge-lined gardens, this 4 bedroom home is introduced by a timber fretwork, bull nose verandah revealing an spacious and light-filled interior.

Superbly presented the interior features a crisp white décor with contrasting stained floorboards, pale grey carpets and imbued with subtle period attributes including coloured glass and high ceilings with roses and cornices. A long hallway leads to three bedrooms, a living room, and a dining area with a Tasmanian blackwood kitchen featuring quality stainless-steel appliances, along with an adjacent bathroom and a separate laundry. Two second level areas, an attic above the kitchen/dining area and a large studio above the carport provide the flexibility and multi-purpose rooms for a fourth bedroom, retreat, studio or home office. Bi-fold and French doors open to three outdoor areas, a deck and courtyard garden - creating perfect indoor/outdoor dining and entertaining options. Other features of this most appealing home include 3-OFPs, ample storage, alarm system, ducted heating, R/C air conditioners (kitchen/dining and studio), gas BBQ connection, parking permits and a remote carport with easy rear lane access.

The Urquhart Estate is perfectly positioned close to the vibrant Glenferrie Road shops, restaurants, cafes, Lido Cinema and Recreation Centre; or the eclectic Auburn Village and exceptional local amenities, public transport options, Gardiners Creek trails and other parklands; plus easy access to some of Melbourne’s finest schools, Swinburne University or CityLink for accessing the CBD or either peninsula – all underpinning its coveted family lifestyle credentials
