In one of the prestigious Hawthorn West precinct's most prized settings, this double fronted Victorian combines its original charm and character with renovated modern functionality on a generous 550sqm (approx.) Thoughtfully adapted for contemporary living while retaining its irresistible early enchantment, its three-bedroom, two-bathroom accommodation is ideal for now, while its deep rear garden offers scope for a significant renovation/extension (STCA) if ever desired.
Pretty as a picture just footsteps from parkland, a verandah façade opens to a light-filled central hall with delicate timber fretwork, and three spacious bedrooms that showcase the elegance of their era in high rosette ceilings, tall double sash windows and open fireplaces. The main bedroom gazes out over the front garden with a handsome timber open fireplace, a skylit walk-in robe providing extensive hanging and drawer storage, and sparkling contemporary ensuite, while the two additional bedrooms, one with open fireplace, share a polished contemporary family bathroom. At the rear, a family room with open fireplace steps out to a second verandah adjacent to a large modern kitchen and adjoining dining/play room. Beyond, the deep garden awaits, offering plenty of room for play or entertaining before plans for the future are brought to life in this premier family position.
Further highlights include hydronic heating, multi split cooling units, original timber floors, garden shed and permit street parking.
