Superbly-expanded living with a north-rear alfresco oasis

Love the light, enjoy the living and experience one of Carlton's most sought-after lifestyle locations with this superbly-renovated 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom corner terrace opening to a north-facing rear alfresco oasis. Side and rear laneway access create a quiet and convenient, light-filled setting for this private 2-level residence where period elegance and modern enhancement behind an attractive heritage profile provide an idyllic scenario for buyers seeking an indoor-outdoor sanctuary of quality, sophistication and ease. A high ceiling and polished floorboards line a welcoming entrance hallway that passes 2 ground-floor carpeted bedrooms before arriving at a stunning central bathroom brilliantly updated for today with full wall tiling and a laundry area including a washing machine, trough and storage. The main bedroom is peacefully located upstairs and, introduced by a study alcove capturing a view to the city skyline, features built-in robes, air-conditioning, a private sun-drenched balcony and a stylish ensuite including an oversized frameless-glass shower. An expansive open-concept living and dining zone on the ground-floor is an incredibly-impressive space with split-system heating and cooling that adjoins an outstanding gourmet kitchen with its stainless-steel appliances, stone benchtops and excellent storage, while just outside for relaxed entertaining is a north-rear courtyard with a timber deck, awning and ROW. A superbly executed combination of Victorian charm and contemporary style with an exceptional layout and ducted heating throughout, this meticulously-presented home with 2 car permits offers an exciting opportunity only minutes to the city and a short walk to lively Lygon and Brunswick Streets' cafes and restaurants, Rathdowne Village, Princes Park, the Carlton Gardens, Melbourne University, major hospitals, schools (University High School zone) and trams.
