Nestled in one of Coburg's favourite pockets, in the Strathmore Secondary zone, and occupying a 678m2 (approx) allotment, this elevated family home has been lovingly maintained and well cared-for by one owner for almost half a century, and now stands ready for a new chapter. Offering four bedrooms and a practical foundation to move in right away, or add some modern touches to reflect your own tastes, there's plenty of scope for future reinvention. Opening into a separate entry, a large front lounge flows to a formal dining space, and into the spacious timber kitchen wrapped around a relaxed meals area, offering modern appliances including a dishwasher. Ample accommodation is provided in four large bedrooms (three with robes), all serviced by an updated bathroom featuring a separate shower and bathtub. There's more on offer with an extensive garage and workshop at the rear of the block as well as a second full kitchen that's perfect for catering to crowds, plus abundant storage space. Two wide verandahs offer plenty of room for outdoor enjoyment, creating a beautiful setting for family celebrations or quiet mornings in the sunshine, while raised garden beds are perfect for the home gardener. Yearround comfort is ensured with ducted heating and evaporative cooling, while a large laundry and handy second WC add to the home's everyday ease. With Melville Road and Sydney Road not far away, you're surrounded by local cafés, shopping and daily conveniences, while nearby Coburg Station provides effortless access to the CBD. CityLink is within easy reach for smooth travel around town, and nearby parklands and reserves offer open spaces for walking, cycling and unwinding. A single garage, additional offstreet parking and secure gated access further enhance the appeal, so whether you're ready to move in and enjoy its enduring charm, renovate and elevate it into a contemporary family haven, or consider future redevelopment options (STCA), this home offers remarkable flexibility for the discerning buyer.
