A clever contemporary revamp designed to meet the demands of today infuses quality and style into the light-filled spaces of this brilliant Victorian residence. A picturesque period presence with its lace-fringed veranda and garden soaking up the sunshine precedes this captivating, single-level home offering an exciting lifestyle opportunity in a quiet street at the heart of Collingwood.
An eclectic and cohesive combination of elements create an interior of distinctive city-edge character best highlighted by the outstanding kitchen with its retro Smeg appliances (stove, fridge/freezer), stone benchtops, integrated dishwasher, pressed metal splashback and soft-close drawers.
The open-plan living and dining room delivers a warm and inviting aesthetic with its polished floorboards, high ceiling roses, open fireplace and reverse-cycle heating/cooling. A dedicated study/workstation with desk is ideal for working from home, while there are two spacious bedrooms (BIR, OFP), a bright bathroom (frameless easy-access shower) and European laundry.
This delightful home opens to a landscaped rear garden with ROW access, gas point for BBQ and a pergola-covered alfresco area to while away good times and gatherings in absolute seclusion. Looking forward, the exceedingly comfortable setting presents potential to expand/extend up if desired.
The location is all about loving a lifestyle where community and a café culture come together just moments Smith Street, recently voted "World's Coolest Street" and its endless strip of eateries, bars, salons and shops, city-bound trams, Collingwood train station, parklands and the nearby trails that skirt the Yarra River.
