Elegant freestanding federation home in a prime Northcote position.
Steeped in turn-of-the-century splendour, this freestanding Federation home pairs timeless elegance with easycare liveability to complement a classic inner-city lifestyle, metres from St Georges Road trams and moments from bustling High Street. Immaculately presented and abundant with warmth, it boasts substantial dimensions including a fantastic upstairs extension, plus a desirable north aspect and ROW access to off-street parking.
The handsome solid-brick façade welcomes with soaring pressed metal ceilings and polished floorboards that flow from the foyer into a spacious living room with a cast iron fireplace and large dining room, separated by interconnecting doors. Nestled at the back is a country-style kitchen offering gas cooking, a dishwasher, timber benchtops and a sun-filled meals area. Here, French doors lead to a private paved courtyard framed by mature gardens designed for quiet relaxation or single-car parking with secure lane access. Additionally, there is a king-size main bedroom with a decorative fireplace and box bay windows, generous second bedroom and neat bathroom that has a separate w/c. Set beneath towering cathedral ceilings on the first level is a huge third bedroom, or optional rumpus room, which has a tranquil balcony enjoying the leafy northerly outlook.
Enhanced by picture rails, sash windows and sympathetic light fittings, this superb home features integrated laundry facilities, zoned central heating and cooling, split system air-conditioning upstairs, roof storage, under-stair storage and a handy garden shed. Close to Northcote's iconic hub with its shops, cafes and restaurants, it is also conveniently placed strolling distance to Northcote station, Batman Park, Northcote Plaza and Merri Creek Trail, and zoned to both Northcote Primary School and Northcote High School.
