Live well and work comfortably from home while being surrounded by the classic period character of this well-proportioned 3-bedroom charming Ruskin St home.
Beyond its distinct double fronted property, this double brick classic awakens ignites the senses with its 3.3m high ceilings (approx.), hardwood timber floorboards, restored fireplaces, original stippled glass doors, high skirting boards and picture rails, plus the opportunity to work in a huge, converted office roof space with natural light and room for 2 great desks.
Lovingly maintained and updated, downstairs it features an arched entrance into the wide entry hall, and onto a wonderful living room with double doors to the sunny paved front patio, a classic formal dining room (or potentially another bedroom), a practical kitchen with stainless steel appliances and European laundry, two of the superb bedrooms with a choice of robes/shelves and a large elegant period-style bathroom with spa bath. Upstairs, the substantial space gives you the versatility of a bedroom, home office or a hybrid of the two.
The low maintenance stone landscape of the rear garden provides a second outdoor space with the choice of undercover and open-air alfresco living, while 3 storage spaces including a powered workshop add real-world practicality.
Improved with a new ducted heating system just one year ago (provisioned for cooling), this C.1920s gem includes ceiling fans, additional lined attic storage and secure parking for 2 vehicles behind an automatic remotely controlled gate.
A truly magnificent location, only metres to Elwood's fabulous café scene, a light stroll to the beach and literally 92 steps to the Lollypop crossing for St Columba's, but also within walking distance to all the sought after local Elwood schools.
The 246 bus stop, in both directions, is just 2 minutes away, which connects to multiple trams and Elsternwick Railway Station.
