Tucked quietly into one of Northcote's most tightly held streets, this refined three-bedroom, two-bathroom home on Union Street offers a rare blend of architectural craft, warmth and inner-north lifestyle ease. Behind its classic single-fronted façade, the home unfolds into a beautifully considered rear extension where light, material and movement work in harmony.
At the heart of the home, an open-plan kitchen, dining and living zone is wrapped in a sculptural Australian hardwood surface that seamlessly conceals storage, services and circulation. Precise folds define spaces without interrupting flow, drawing your eye toward the garden and sky while creating moments of intimacy and drama beneath the soaring, angled ceiling. A mezzanine bedroom/study hovers above, offering a peaceful retreat with outlooks across the living zone.
The material palette is both tactile and striking. Warm timber offset by stainless steel in the kitchen and mosaic-tiled wet areas delivering contrast, surprise and everyday practicality. Sustainable design is thoughtfully integrated, with solar tiles enhancing efficiency without compromising form.
All of this sits moments from the heart of Northcote living. Stroll to Westgarth Village for morning coffee, catch a film at the cinema, or wander up High Street's vibrant strip of restaurants, bars and boutiques. With transport, parks and the CBD within easy reach, this is a home that feels deeply calm yet effortlessly connected, a place to slow down, entertain and truly settle in.
