Quietly nestled along an historic tree-lined streetscape in one of Brunswick's most desirable enclaves sits this elegant freestanding Victorian beauty, transformed from a worker's cottage into a classic family home with a custom renovation. Melding timeless charm, relaxed modern luxury and eco-friendly additions, the effortlessly functional free-flowing design is paired with a tranquil north-facing alfresco sanctuary and off-street parking with ROW access.
Surrounded by established homes in a community-minded neighbourhood, the delightful weatherboard façade is framed by verdant drought-tolerant native gardens. Enhanced by high ceilings and polished mahogany floors, the single storey layout offers a spacious main bedroom with a wall of built-in robes and French doors that lead to the side courtyard, plus two further large bedrooms including an optional study with an electric fireplace, all set off the fretted hallway.

Bi-fold glass doors afford a seamless transition to the Bali-inspired gazebo and lush rear garden peppered with fruit trees.
