A true Essendon classic with history dating back to the 1890's, this freestanding Federation prize with two frontages, a private pool retreat, and substantial land holding provides the perfect family entry to one of the suburb's best streets.
With its bullnose veranda, iron lacework, and ashlar-style weatherboards cause for instant intrigue, interiors beyond distinguish accommodation from main areas to be a dream for both hospitality and day-to-day life. Three generous, front bedrooms, an elegant central bathroom, and combined bathroom/laundry are ideal counterparts to an upper master with a twin-basin ensuite, walk-in robe, and scenic balcony capturing sweeping views. A broad dining room steps into a shaded southern deck wonderful for an afternoon lost in a book, while a Siemens kitchen capably serves any occasion in a large living space and entertainer's backyard.
Equipped with a servery to be brilliant for drinks and dining come summer months, a standalone cabana/studio and covered alfresco flank a pool and spa heated for year-round use, and a ROW along the rear, while the home's other highlights include excellent robe, roof, and general storage, comprehensive heating/cooling, Baltic pine floors, a video intercom, parking for three, soaring ceilings, and period intricacies furthering inherent charm. Near elite schools, it's mere steps to city trains and trams, North Essendon Village, lively Rose, Napier, and Fletcher Streets, and the suburb's heartland in Windy Hill.
