Behind a white picket fence and a lace-trimmed verandah, this calm, well-kept two-bedroom period home has an arch-and-cornice hallway, leadlight entry and fireplaces still doing the talking. The hallway runs the depth of the house, with a carved-corbel arch and a pull-down ladder to attic storage. Both bedrooms sit at the front, one with a fireplace and built-in robes, the other fitted wall to wall with joinery. The living room offers a fireplace, built-in cabinetry and a split system, opening to a bright kitchen and meals area with gas cooktop, dishwasher and glass-fronted cabinetry. The laundry, with space for a washing machine and dryer, leads to a covered deck and paved terrace under an established tree. Close to Croxton Station, trams, Northcote Plaza and High Street cafes, zoned for Northcote Primary and High Schools.
