Cul-de-sac classic embracing the Collingwood buzz Modernised for turnkey living while rich with scope for future renewal, this preserved classic stays true to the craft and detail of great Victorian design, bringing charisma with comfort to an enclave wrapped in verve and vibrancy. With all the hallmarks of the era, a terraced stance precedes interiors endearing from the outset. Architraves, skirting boards, cornices, and a feature hallway arch are joined by a rose, exposed brickwork, and soaring ceilings, with two substantial bedrooms and a modern bathroom introduced before a back section tying everything together. Stainless-steel appliances and an integrated laundry enhance a well-equipped kitchen, while sliding glass doors take an open living/dining area into a sun-drenched backyard kept low-maintenance and ideal for entertaining. As impressive a home and future renovation prospect as it is a yield investment in one of Melbourne's most demanded rental positions, the abode's other highlights include a northern lightwell, combined bath/shower, and split-system heating/cooling, along with zoning for Clifton Hill Primary and Collingwood College. In a prized lifestyle setting where a car is simply not necessary, it's only steps to locals' favourite pubs and coffee spots, scattered parks and playgrounds, the quaint village in adjoining Clifton Hill, and famous arts, culinary, shopping, and after-hours scenes of Melbourne icons Smith, Brunswick, and Johnston Streets, with trains, trams, and bike paths making city commutes a breeze.
