First time offered to the market in 70years. Uniting a private garden sanctuary and a prized address backing onto the serene Merri Creek Trail, this three bedroom period home rests on a remarkable block of approximately 818m², delivering potential to renovate or rebuild/develop (Subject to Council Approval). Positioned to maximise its sunny north/east facing rear, it basks in natural light, with decorative cornices celebrating its period origins. The lounge enjoys leafy outlooks, while the adjoining dining room leads to a retro kitchen. Descend to the sizeable back garden that delivers direct parkland access. It includes split system heat/cooling, built-in robes, under-house storage and a lock-up garage. Less than 8km from the CBD via nearby trams on Nicholson Street, it's moments from schools, eateries, Sydney Road and access to Lygon Street.
