Completely reimagined, this contemporary take on a classic period home promotes design with real substance, comfort backed by versatility and the lifestyle exclusive to the inner west.
Proud and prominent in its low-traffic street full of heritage charm, the abode keeps the craftsmanship, character and elegance it’s held for nearly a century, matched by a series of clever updates bringing modern function to enduring legacy. With ensuite access to a chic bathroom with a bathtub, an entire wall of robe space and garden views through the original bay window, a ground-floor master gives the option to live on one level. Ample storage and a smart second bathroom serve guest and third bedrooms, joined upstairs by a versatile study/kids’ playroom and view of city skyscrapers.
Rays pour across a relaxing front lounge to make each arrival its own event, with light, space and atmosphere taken to new heights in a scintillating main section beyond. Tasmanian oak continues underfoot, ceilings soar above, a gas-log fire brings warmth and a garden backdrop adds a touch of calm, with an open living area neighbouring a first-class kitchen offering stone benchtops, upscale appliances and an extended-island dining table divine for social evenings.
Spilling into a backyard with thriving foliage and delightful sun, a curved alfresco deck proves outstanding for evening drinks and blue-sky barbecues, while other highlights include off-street parking, a standalone studio/office, 14 solar panels, abundant roof and general storage, a full-size laundry and reverse-cycle heating/cooling throughout.
Why you’ll love this location:
Although a secure driveway takes appeal to new heights, a prestige position means a car is so rarely necessary, with countless conveniences within a short stroll. Both Yarraville and Seddon Villages headline a location loved citywide, placing cafés and bakeries, eclectic cuisine, boutique grocers, trendy wine bars, longstanding pubs and the famous Sun Theatre right around the corner.
St Augustine’s Primary and Yarraville West Primary, the local oval and sporting clubs, Yarraville Gardens, numerous buses, connecting bike paths and two train stations are all metres away, with the West Gate Tunnel and Freeway, stunning river sights, Footscray’s vibrant heart, Highpoint retail and the new hospital/university precinct nearby.
