Overview

Park in front, sun out back, a Victorian extended for modern living

Opposite Robertson Street Reserve in a quiet, tree-lined cul-de-sac, this Victorian strikes a balance between its original character and a considered contemporary extension, creating a home that feels both established and easy to live in. A traditional arched hallway sets the tone, with two generous bedrooms, both with built-in robes, positioned up front. They're served by a central bathroom with separate bath, while a separate laundry with custom cabinetry and an integrated workstation adds a practical layer that's often missing. At the rear, the house opens up. Living and dining take on a different rhythm here, shaped by natural light and softened by leafy outlooks. The kitchen sits comfortably within the space, finished with stone benchtops, a mirrored splashback, ample storage, quality appliances and a freestanding island that naturally becomes the place to gather. French doors extend the room outward to a north-facing courtyard. Paved and established, it's private without feeling enclosed, with the added benefit of secure off-street parking via the rear lane. High ceilings, timber floors, plantation shutters, louvred windows and split-system heating and cooling speak to a home that has been improved with care rather than overworked. The setting does the rest. Kensington Village, Kensington Station, Macaulay Station, Pin Oak Crescent, and the Moonee Ponds Creek Trail are all within walking distance, keeping the day-to-day simple while the city stays close.
