Attractive landscaped garden and an elegant solid-brick profile create a sunlit and secluded introduction to the beautiful Edwardian-era detail, stylish modern enhancement and separate living zones of this large and light 3 bedroom residence c1919 on a deep allotment with secure parking. Zoned to Merri Creek Primary and Northcote High School while only footsteps to the Deutsche Schule, the family-friendly surroundings of this spacious single-level home are primed and ready for a busy, active lifestyle and encompass St Georges Road and North Fitzroy Village shops and cafes, trams (routes 11 and 96), Merri train station, extensive parklands and the tranquil Merri Creek nature trail. Impeccably-presented on polished timber floorboards, an entrance hallway extends to 3 distinctive bedrooms with 2 including built-in robes, coupled with a comprehensively-renovated contemporary bathroom that's centrally situated for absolute convenience. A magnificent pressed metal ceiling crowns a superb east-facing living room with a gas log fireplace, while further is a handy powder room opposite a separate full-size laundry. An expansive living and dining space beneath a towering pitched ceiling with double fans present an ideal scenario for a family to relax in light and airy comfort by a 3-sided gourmet kitchen featuring AEG and Miele stainless-steel appliances, and abundant storage. Heading outside through wide sliding doors reveals an impressive setup for alfresco entertaining with undercover and open-air areas fringed in garden flowing to a utilities and parking space behind a broad roller door. Other attributes include heating and cooling, huge attic storage with a drop-down ladder, a rainwater tank, lock-up shed and cost-saving 5.18kW solar system.
