A rare find in one of Essendon's premier pockets, this freestanding Victorian home is full of fabulous surprises including an impressively spacious floorplan, quality enhancements throughout and substantial single-front allotment in excess of 300sqm. Towering ceilings throughout, the home's extended design showcases three generous bedrooms (all with built-in robes) and updated central bathroom, vast open-plan living/dining area accompanied by a well-appointed kitchen complete with tiled splashbacks, soft-close cabinetry, stainless steel cooking appliances and dishwasher. Ducted heating and split-system air conditioning add to the appeal along with a family-sized laundry with large storage cupboards, plus bi-folds (from the living area) leading out to an undercover deck and private low-maintenance backyard. Moments from the open spaces of Clarinda Park, it's also walking distance to PEGS, Lowther Hall and St Columba's College, Rose Street cafes and Essendon Station, as well as easy access to Puckle Street's vibrant shopping precinct.
