Overview

Period charm, north-facing rear and a standout Brunswick East position

A wonderfully wide streetscape sets the tone for this classic Victorian, where immediate comfort and clear scope to further enhance combine to create a really attractive inner-city opportunity. Beyond the Hawthorn-brick facade, a previously extended interior reveals two genuinely large bedrooms with built-in robes, both serviced by a neat, functional bathroom. To the rear, a light-filled open-plan living and dining room forms the heart of the home, complemented by a well-maintained kitchen with updated gas cooking. A standout feature is the north-facing rear, delivering a deep backyard bathed in natural light throughout the day. It provides a generous and versatile outdoor space with extensive brick paving, a garden shed and direct rear laneway access, along with excellent potential to further extend or reimagine over time (STCA). Additional features include gas heating, solid timber floors, high ceilings and a full-size laundry. Positioned for lifestyle, it's a short walk to Lygon and Nicholson Street trams, along with a great mix of local cafes, bars and restaurants, plus easy access to parks, popular schools, Brunswick East Village and the Inner Circle Rail Trail.
