Overview

Timeless Character, Tightly Held Street

There's a magic to this place that's rare in any market. Cherished since 1938, this charming art deco home tells a story of character and care, from its leadlight windows and decorative ceilings to a home that's been held with pride for generations. Step inside and the storybook continues. Rich timber floors flow beneath ceilings crowned with original detail, while two generous bedrooms celebrate the home's heritage personality. Genuine flexibility comes courtesy of the beautiful front living room, where leafy garden views create an inviting retreat that could just as easily serve as a third bedroom to suit your needs. The central bathroom charms with its heritage character, while a separate toilet adds everyday practicality. The kitchen is the heart of the home, with gas cooking, a dishwasher and abundant storage flowing to a light-filled dining and living zone at the rear, kept comfortable year-round by heating and cooling. Sliding doors reveal a covered entertaining deck framed by intricate decorative screens that filter the sunlight, overlooking a cottage garden with stone paths and established trees. A workshop shed, great off-street parking and a carport complete the picture, with plenty of room to renovate and extend. Move in and enjoy it exactly as it stands, with all the scope to renovate and extend in time, and claim your place in one of West Footscray's most sought-after streets. The lifestyle credentials are every bit as appealing. It's a prime position within walking distance of everything, zoned for West Footscray Primary School and moments from the soon-to-be new RecWest and upgraded Shorten Reserve. Martin Reserve dog park and Johnson Reserve add to a neighbourhood where parks are plentiful and cafes are everywhere.
