Overview

Hawthorn-brick haven among the Flemington planes

Framed by the London plane trees of a revered family street, this Hawthorn-brick prize cherishes a prestige position, celebrates its rich history, and delivers sun-splashed comfort that performs at today's standard. With its high-side placement, Japanese maple garden, iron lacework, and tuckpointed brickwork, the street stance is as captivating as the stellar spaces waiting beyond. Re-treated Tasmanian oak lies underfoot, ceilings soar above, and fireplaces, roses, cornices, and architraves are among the details preserving character that's stood for over 125 years, while a welcoming hallway introduces two generous bedrooms before a main section where the home hits its stride. Sun pours through a well-placed light court and across a substantial living/dining area, met by a well-equipped kitchen and north-facing backyard great for entertaining under blue skies. A roller door makes the most of an extra frontage to a wide rear laneway, while a refreshed bathroom, full-size laundry, shed/workshop, living-room cellar, and split-system heating/cooling take appeal to new heights. With trendy bars, brunch spots, iconic restaurants, eclectic shopping, the 57 Tram, and city trains all steps away in neighbouring Newmarket, it's only metres to Flemington (zoned) and St Brendan's Primary Schools, lively Mt Alexander Road, and the 59 Tram bound for Parkville's hospital/university precinct, along with CityLink making cross-town commutes a breeze.
