Behind the low brick fence and neat front garden, this bungalow-style weatherboard has the easy, familiar charm of a home made for family life. Backing onto a laneway and set on 466sqm in a quiet, tree-lined street near the Thornbury border, it combines three bedrooms, a study, a substantial backyard and three-car parking in a sought-after West Preston pocket where the school run is quick, and shopping centres, parks, and transport are within walking distance.
The front porch leads into a wide entrance hall, with the bedrooms arranged off the passage and a living room retaining its period warmth. Further in, the dining room gives the interior its everyday gathering place, with air conditioning, enough space to fit the whole household at one table and an open flow to the kitchen with an upright stove and ample cabinetry. A big walk-in pantry keeps the counters free from clutter, while the adjoining study is the bonus you always need, providing a spot for working from home away from the main living zones.
The bathroom is bright and fully tiled, with a shower and toilet, and a second toilet beside the laundry keeps busy mornings moving. Outside, the alfresco patio looks across a generous garden with space to entertain, unwind or let the kids run around. Ducted heating, a carport, garage, extra off-street parking and two sheds add everyday substance to a home that's comfortable exactly as it is, with potential to update further whenever you're ready.
Coveted Bell Primary School is a 400-metre walk, with Preston High School falling within the zone as well. From here, Miller Street Village, Preston Market, High Street, the train station and trams are a short trip, with nearby H. Swain Reserve, A.H. Capp Reserve, the Merri Creek trails and a choice of private schools rounding out what's on offer.
