The 1950s was an era dominated by a prosperous economy, a high standard of living, family-focused values and the 'suburban dream' of a house of one's own with the large family car, a TV in the lounge and the ubiquitous Hills Hoist and lemon tree in the back yard.
The lemon tree is still here and the mid-century character of the home is preserved: with under carpet hardwood flooring, detailed cornices, corner windows and glazed internal doors.
The floor plan comprises 3 bedrooms (2 with built-in robe storage), central bathroom with original fixtures, kitchen and casual meals area and a 1970s extended family room overlooking the rear garden, original lock up garage and wood shed.
Occupying a blue ribbon position between Vincent Street and the Wombat Hill Botanic Gardens, the home’s optimal orientation maximises northern sunlight and airflow, and there is a strong connection to the front and back gardens. It is a home that perfectly encapsulates so many of the nostalgic attributes of mid-century design, whilst offering the opportunity to live in now, renovate later and with some forethought, perhaps convert into a dual occupancy.
