Overview

Elevated Living in a Coveted Newtown Streetscape

Occupying an elevated allotment within one of Newtown's most coveted streetscapes, this updated 1960s residence unites timeless character with comfortable modern living and a wonderfully connected lifestyle. High ceilings, decorative cornices and an Art Deco ceiling rose lend charm to fresh white interiors, while timber-look flooring delivers a cohesive finish throughout. The open-plan living, kitchen and dining zone forms the heart of the home, an inviting space for everyday living enhanced by elevated views across the city towards GMHBA Stadium. The well-appointed kitchen features a Chef oven and gas cooktop, Euromaid dishwasher, built-in pantry and breakfast bar, keeping everything close at hand while staying connected to the main living area. A second living space at the rear adds versatility and opens directly to a paved alfresco area and the fully fenced backyard. With a sunny north-facing aspect, it's a welcoming setting whether you're relaxing on a quiet afternoon or gathering with family and friends. Three well-proportioned bedrooms each include built-in robes, with the main bedroom offering a pleasant outlook of its own. The modern bathroom is appointed with dual basins and a deep bathtub, while a separate toilet and European laundry add practical convenience. Year-round comfort comes from ducted heating, evaporative cooling, a split-system air conditioner and an electric fireplace. A long driveway offers off-street parking, while a remote single garage provides useful storage. Positioned for effortless daily living, the home is a short stroll from both ends of cosmopolitan Pakington Street. You'll enjoy the area's much-loved cafés, restaurants and boutique shopping, as well as GMHBA Stadium for Cats' home games. Families will love being zoned to Chilwell Primary School, with a selection of Geelong's highly regarded secondary colleges nearby. Commuters will appreciate being close to Geelong Train Station, while the CBD and the Waterfront are only a short distance by car. Potential rent return at $695 - $725 per week.
