Overview

Rich Heritage, approved plans & future potential

Positioned to perfection with countless conveniences at its disposal, this deep-block Victorian comes complete with approved plans and permits for a four-bedroom extension, offering an exceptional opportunity to capture its character, fully reimagine, and live luxuriously in the heart of Essendon. With iron lacework, stained-glass windows, a white-picket fence, and block-board façade charismatic from the outset, spaces that follow offer quiet comfort with room to renew. Two oversized bedrooms are introduced before a relaxing central lounge and slate-floor extension home to a kitchen/meals area, window-side study, and modern bathroom/laundry, while a deep backyard provides clear distinction from all single-front norms. The well-positioned block broadens the potential of a future redesign, while elaborate roses on soaring ceilings, exquisite cornices, Baltic pine floors, and fireplaces headline the original features perfect as foundations for the home's next chapter. Claiming a Black Street address loved for its community spirit and rarity of turnover, it's only footsteps to St Therese's Primary, farmers markets at Lincoln Park, and the shopping, coffee, and cuisine spanning Buckley Street, Rose Street, and North Essendon Village, along with Essendon Station, elite secondary schools, lively Keilor Road, and breathtaking river scenery.
