Framed by the tall trees, storied architecture, and overarching prestige of famous Rothwell Hill, this complete renovation of a north-facing Edwardian brings refinement, elegance, and turnkey comfort to Ascot Vale's heart.
Benefiting from rear-lane frontage and a secure carport for two, the home strikes a memorable stance with its fretwork and classical forms, after which leadlight glass, fireplaces, ornate cornices, and exquisite pressed metal on towering ceilings keep character centre-stage. Two substantial bedrooms, extensive robe space, and a peaceful lounge all occupy the original front section, while beyond, an open dining area and Bosch/Westinghouse kitchen merge with an alfresco space and easy-care garden soaking in all-day sun brilliant for entertaining. A modernised bathroom offers a bath, rainfall shower, and integrated laundry, while other highlights include split-system heating/cooling, hardwood floors, and zoning for nearby Ascot Vale Primary.
Trams reach Highpoint and Mt Alexander Road in no time, Ascot Vale Station streamlines commutes to Newmarket (one stop) and Southern Cross (four stops), and Union Road's boutique shops, gourmet grocers, brunch spots, bars, and leisure facilities all fall within a short stroll, as do St Mary's Primary and a Melbourne icon in Puckle Street.
