First time on offer in 36 years, this remarkable red-brick Edwardian residence is rich in character and designed for modern family living, boasting prized dual street frontage and a blue-chip position in the prestigious Mar Lodge Estate. Sitting on a 683 sqm (approx.) allotment, it combines ornate heritage detail with expansive spaces across a versatile floorplan.
Freshly painted interiors with new carpet reveal four bedrooms plus a study, served by a central family bathroom, powder room with automatic toilet, and a private ensuite to the main bedroom with walk-in robe. Grand Edwardian arches and decorative cornices with floral detailing highlight the home’s period charm, while wide interiors create a bright and welcoming backdrop.
Two distinct living zones provide versatility, including a spectacular rear lounge with soaring cathedral ceiling, exposed beams, and a Coonara fireplace — an inviting centrepiece for gatherings. A second central lounge offers additional space for relaxed family living. At the heart of the home, the kitchen showcases Westinghouse appliances, stone benchtops, and excellent storage, alongside a large laundry for everyday convenience.
At the front, a charming wraparound veranda and landscaped yard enhance the home’s period character and street appeal. At the rear, a decked alfresco area, beautifully paved backyard, established garden beds, and a neat lawn provide low-maintenance outdoor entertaining. A double garage with kitchenette adds further functionality, complemented by side access via King Street, showcasing the property’s dual frontage advantage.
Close to Buckley Street cafés, CityLink, and leading schools including Penleigh and Essendon Grammar and Lowther Hall, this prestigious Mar Lodge Estate address offers lifestyle excellence and enduring family appeal.
