'WIMMERA' - one of the area's most recognisable homes, this grand Edwardian showpiece presents an exceptionally rare opportunity to secure your family's future along one of Melbourne's premier dress circle boulevards directly opposite Princes Park.
Occupying a vast allotment of approximately 746sqm with an extraordinary 16.7 metre (approx.) frontage to Bowen Crescent and Princes Park, the home delivers a lifestyle of period elegance and family practicality with exceptional scope to further enhance and expand in the future (STCA).
The distinctive façade with its wrap-around verandah makes way for an impressively well-proportioned interior comprising four bedrooms (two extra-large), all serviced by two bathrooms one contemporary and the other period-inspired complete with clawfoot tub.
Further emphasising the home's magnificence is a grand formal dining room and even grander formal lounge, as well as a granite-bench kitchen with 900mm cooking appliances, Miele dishwasher and adjoining living area.
Towering ceilings, ornate plasterwork, tessellated-tile floors and stunning leadlight windows all add to the charm, along with the centrepiece front balcony offering picture-perfect views across Princes Park, just as it has done for more than 115 years.
Rounding out this extraordinary lifestyle package is a substantial backyard with home office, large workshop and additional (third) bathroom, plus landscaped gardens throughout and a remote-control double garage accessed via the rear ROW.
Footsteps to the Inner-Circle Rail Trail along with Royal Parade trams and local schools, this extraordinary home is also close to Rathdowne Village eateries, Sydney Road retail and Jewell Station, as well as easy access to Parkville's hospital and university precincts.
