Privately tucked away in a blue ribbon Alphington enclave, just 80m from the stunning surrounds of Darebin Parklands, this charming 1950s family home presents an extraordinary opportunity to renovate, extend or rebuild (STCA) and create your dream city-fringe lifestyle. Set on approximately 598sqm with a desirable north aspect and wide street frontage, it offers a comfortable existing dwelling with expansive gardens backing onto secluded bushland.
The classic weatherboard façade welcomes with high ceilings, ornate mouldings and gallery rails. Polished timber floors flow via etched glass doors into a spacious living room and dining room, both with gas fireplaces. Further on is an updated kitchen with stainless steel gas fixtures, two generous bedrooms and a neat bathroom with a shower over a bath and separate w/c. At the back is a home office or retreat, and a sunroom that opens onto a huge child-friendly backyard embracing the leafy setting, which has room for a pool.
Also outside is a secure single garage, an enormous workshop and additional off-street parking along the side driveway. In addition, this property includes a separate laundry, ducted heating and security screens.
Nestled at the end of a quiet street, this substantial parcel of land is placed footsteps from idyllic walking trails, strolling distance to local cafes, sports grounds, Alphington Farmers Market and city transport, and within easy reach of Ivanhoe shopping precinct, Fairfield Village and excellent schools.
