Set on a wonderfully deep block of land (approx. 234sqm and approx. 45m deep) complete with side and rear ROW, this landmark Victorian delivers a lifestyle of family proportions and city-edge convenience along with a myriad of options to further enhance and extend in the future (STCA). Beyond its charismatic shopfront facade, discover a distinctly retro interior comprising three large bedrooms (extra-large master with city skyline views) all with built-in robes complemented by a fully-tiled central bathroom with Astra Walker tapware. Adding to the allure is a versatile lounge leading through to the open-plan living/dining area accompanied by a neat kitchen with updated cooking appliances and dishwasher. An abundance of natural light throughout, the home also includes underfloor heating and split-system air conditioning, towering pressed metal ceilings, plantation shutters, internal laundry facilities and under-stair storage spaces. Double doors reveal a brilliant north-facing backyard oasis with large brick-paved entertaining area, established gardens and plenty of room to expand, plus the added versatility of an oversized garage (currently converted to a studio/home office) with its own separate toilet. Walking distance to local cafes, a choice of tram lines, acres of parkland and endless Merri Creek trails, it's also close to popular schools (zoned to Northcote High School), kinder/childcare facilities, Merri station and the new East Brunswick Village shopping precinct.
