Set behind a leafy hedge in one of Carlton North's most loved streets, this semi-detached Victorian sits right in the heart of Rathdowne Village.
The front of the home is classic and well-proportioned, with two genuinely large bedrooms off the arched hallway, each with built-in robes and split-system heating and cooling, serviced by a substantial central bathroom with integrated laundry and good storage.
It's at the rear where things really open up. A full-width extension creates a surprisingly expansive living, dining and kitchen domain, anchored by soaring mansard ceilings that give the space a light, airy feel more akin to a country home than inner-city terrace living. The kitchen is well appointed with stone benches, quality appliances and considered storage, connecting easily to the living and dining zones, complete with built-in seating.
French doors draw you out to a private, high-walled courtyard - a sunny outdoor space that works just as well for a quiet morning coffee as it does for long lunches or evenings with friends.
Additional features include herringbone oak parquetry floors, heating and cooling throughout, an alarm system and roof storage.
The location speaks for itself. Rathdowne Village on your doorstep, with its cafés, grocers and local favourites, plus Curtain Square, Princes Park, Lygon Street and the hospital and university precincts all within easy walking distance.
