A picket fence, green trim and a bay window set into crisp white weatherboards. This Edwardian home has the kind of street appeal that makes passers-by pause, and the leadlight front door opens onto a hallway where a delicate fretwork arch and golden timber floors draw you inside.
Both bedrooms sit toward the front of the house, each with an open fireplace, built-in robes and air conditioning. The main bedroom's bay window creates a cosy nook for a cushion and a good book, with northern light filtering through the panes.
At its centre, the living room gathers around a third fireplace framed by a handsome timber mantelpiece. It's a room you'll curl up in through winter and keep cool in summer, thanks to its own air conditioning. Beyond, dining and kitchen share the rear of the interior, where skylights brighten honey-toned cabinetry, with a gas cooktop, dishwasher, pantry and breakfast bar making cooking easy. A spa bathroom, a separate toilet and a laundry complete the floorplan.
Then step out to the courtyard. Brick paving stretches beneath a timber pergola, with space for a long table, potted citrus and friends who stay well past dessert. The carport pulls double duty as extra covered entertaining, while a garden shed and generous attic storage hide bikes, boxes and seasonal clutter away.
Mount Alexander Road is close by for a morning flat white, and when evening comes, Puckle Street's restaurants and bars are ready for dinner out. Moonee Ponds Central handles the errands, Ormond Park offers a patch of green for the dog or a kick of the footy, and trams, Moonee Ponds Station and CityLink give you three easy ways into town. The home is also zoned for Ascot Vale Primary and Mount Alexander 7-12 College.
