Overview

Victorian Elegance with Timeless Appeal on 1,165m² Approx.

Rich in character and beautifully preserved, this captivating circa-1900s Victorian residence offers a rare opportunity to secure a piece of Drouin's history on an impressive 1,165m² approx. allotment, all within walking distance to shops, cafés, transport and local amenities. Positioned amongst a tightly held row of period homes, the residence immediately impresses with its timeless street presence, 11-foot ceilings, polished Baltic pine floorboards and beautifully proportioned rooms filled with natural light and warmth. Offering three generous bedrooms and two bathrooms, the home provides an outstanding blend of period elegance and practical family living. Thoughtfully renovated maintaining the Victorian charm combined with modern comfort the home combines old-world charm with modern comfort. Extensive improvements including re-stumping, updated wiring and plumbing, re-plastering and insulation upgrades ensure peace of mind, while the rear extension has been carefully designed in keeping with the original Victorian style of the home rather than feeling like a modern addition. The spacious rear living zone features tiled flooring, double-glazed windows and a seamless connection to the private rear yard and entertaining spaces. A Scandinavian Jøtul wood heater framed by reclaimed Hawthorn bricks from the original chimney creates a stunning focal point and cosy atmosphere during the cooler months. Outside, the property continues to impress with a substantial lined garage/workshop, excellent vehicle access via the wide 5-metre driveway and a large freestanding entertaining area complete with its own functioning fireplace and chimney. With additional space behind the garage and potential rear lane access (STCA), the property offers flexibility rarely found in homes of this era. A truly unique offering where timeless Victorian elegance, quality craftsmanship and modern comfort come together on a remarkable parcel of land in one of Drouin's most sought-after locations.
