Brimming with boom-style brilliance, this late-Victorian gem pairs outstanding space and liveability with the welcomed simplicity of a single-level plan, delivering comfort from the outset and scope to further enliven in years to come. Prefaced by a facade with ornamentation typical of its era, an inviting hallway makes an instant impression, with a trio of exquisite arches, soaring, 12ft rosetted ceilings, and elaborate cornices, architraves, and skirts all preserved to keep heritage grace and stature alive. Three bedrooms are accompanied by excellent storage and a smart bathroom, while a sun-splashed main living area flows through a granite-floor kitchen and open dining space en route to a low maintenance North facing backyard ideal for entertaining. Just as attractive for a young family as it is downsizers, professionals, or yield investors, other highlights include hardwood floors, central gas heating as well as reverse-cycle heating/cooling, a large laundry, shed, wide side access to block’s rear, and an eastern pergola perfect for a morning coffee. A handful of doors from the cuisine, shopping, and nightlife of iconic Lygon Street, it’s only steps to lively Sydney Road, CERES, parks, acclaimed schools, and city-bound trams.
