Overview

A two-for-one property for modern living

For Sale via Expressions of Interest closing Monday 10th August at 1:00pm Brimming with space, luxury, and possibilities in a tranquil city-fringe locale, this property presents a unique two-for-one opportunity. With dual street frontage, the luxuriously renovated period home is complemented by a separate townhouse, adding options for extended family, business, or tenancy. Nestled under Canning Street's leafy canopy, the home of a century ago has been transformed into a modern masterpiece. Beyond a bay-window façade, the home welcomes guests with Baltic Pine floorboards and high ceilings. A voluminous open plan domain is laden with northern sun, offering plenty of space for relaxation, dining, and lively entertaining. The kitchen caters to crowds with a full suite of Electrolux appliances, an integrated Liebherr fridge and freezer, and customised storage, while smartly dressed in granite benches. Opening to a private garden, the home indulges indoor-outdoor celebrations, hosting sun-kissed alfresco dining beneath a vine-draped pergola. The accommodation is generously sized and versatile, providing two king-sized bedrooms plus a third bedroom, home office, or games room downstairs, complemented by a central family bathroom. Upstairs, the attic-style main bedroom pampers parents with a dormer-window retreat, a walk-in robe, and a sparkling ensuite. Cocooned in luxe comforts, the home is finished with hydronic heating, evaporative cooling, split system air-conditioning, security alarm, and additional roof-storage. Entered from a right-of-way through a double garage, the townhouse provides options for extended family, home-based business, or additional income through short- or long-term tenancy. A large reception introduces the layout with access to the central garden. Upstairs, a sun-filled living and dining room is laid with chic hardwood floorboards, including a stone-topped kitchen with a full appointment of quality appliances including an integrated fridge and freezer. The bedroom is spacious and private, equipped with a wall of built-in robes, serviced by a skylit bathroom and a European laundry. Situated amid an array of cool cafés and eateries, the property is just footsteps from Arden Gardens shopping, Royal Park recreation, and city-bound trams plus Macaulay and Arden stations. Zoned for North Melbourne Primary and University High schools, this family hotspot is surrounded by infrastructure, minutes from Melbourne's world-class hospital district, esteemed universities, Queen Victoria Market, and the best of our CBD.
