Overview

Marvellous mix of period charm and modern flair

With its eternal character, impressive renovations and flawless presentation, this freestanding home delivers a ready-made lifestyle of quality and class all smack bang in the centre of the street surrounded by the most well-preserved Victorian-era homes in Melbourne.

Village cafes and shops around the corner along with both Kensington and Macaulay train stations (two stops to the CBD), it's also close to local schools, Moonee Ponds Creek Trail and Racecourse Road trams, bars and restaurants, as well as easy access to Citylink.
