A character-filled beauty with space to spare Rich in personality and brimming with beautifully preserved period detail, this blonde-brick beauty presents a rare opportunity to secure a home where timeless character, generous proportions and exceptional versatility come together on an impressive 1,097m² allotment (approx.). From the moment you step inside, the home's individuality takes centre stage. Decorative glass doors, ornate ceilings, decorative cornices, period light fittings and timber floors create an atmosphere of enduring charm, while gracious curved windows add architectural distinction to the lounge and main bedroom. Free-flowing living zones provide flexibility for relaxation and entertaining and are complemented by a warm and welcoming eat-in kitchen that retains its original character, thoughtfully enhanced by the contemporary touches of a 900mm cooker and stainless steel dishwasher. Three bedrooms provide comfortable accommodation, while the fabulous retro bathroom celebrates its vintage appeal with distinctive pink tiling, contrasting black accents and intricate mosaic flooring. A generously proportioned laundry adds further everyday practicality. Outdoors, a terrazzo-tiled entertaining area overlooks the expansive rear yard, providing a delightful setting for relaxed gatherings and offering ample space to enjoy the garden. The substantial allotment presents exciting possibilities for those seeking room to spread out, while a long driveway leads to a secure double carport. Further enhancing the property's appeal is an impressive double garage beneath the home, complete with additional space for a workbench or gym equipment, a sink, a toilet and a large storeroom. Ducted heating, an alarm system and a water tank add further convenience. Positioned for easy everyday living, the home is within footsteps of a choice of bus services and a short walk from Coburg Hills Shopping Centre and the city tram along Gilbert Road. Families will also appreciate the zoning for Newlands Primary School and Coburg High School. A distinctive blend of original charm, generous space and outstanding versatility, this is a home with a story to tell and exciting scope to make it your own.
