In a quiet Westgarth street, this period home feels exactly right for Northcote. Unassuming from the street, it opens gradually into a light-filled, architect-designed renovation that unfolds at its own pace.
A central hallway runs through the home, leading to a generous bedroom filled with natural light and could easily be returned to its original two-room layout. The main bedroom sits quietly to the side as a genuine retreat, with leafy outlooks and a well-considered ensuite finished in warm, earthy tones. A formal living room opens to a central courtyard, bringing light and a sense of calm into the middle of the home, while the central bathroom is positioned for everyday practicality.
At the rear, the extension opens things up. The kitchen has its own clear identity, finished with timber benchtops and designed specifically for this space rather than following trends. It flows into dining and family living areas that look out to the deck and established east-facing garden beyond. Large windows and French doors draw in the light and create an easy connection between inside and out.
The garden is well established and generous, with room to sit, gather, or simply enjoy the light as it shifts through the day. A rear studio with a northern aspect and its own toilet adds flexibility, whether for work, guests or creative use, with a small loft nook and additional storage completing the space.
Added features include hydronic heating, ceiling fans, gas heater in open plan area, custom built storage throughout, alarm and off-street parking within the front setback.
It's a short walk to Dennis Station, parks and trails, Westgarth Village, Station Street, and it's in the Westgarth Primary School zone.
