Time stands still when glancing at the timeless facade of this stylishly updated Victorian Terrace, which soars across two fashionable levels on the Moonee Ponds-Essendon border.
A rich past is echoed through its towering high ceilings, while classically designed cornices and roses, double-hung windows and three open fireplaces paint a picture of period integrity.
An ILVE 900mm stainless steel cooker, stone benchtops and integrated dishwashing drawers add a modern flavour the central open-plan meals/kitchen area, while the seamless integration between the large rear lounge (with gas fireplace) and low-maintenance paved courtyard is another desirable modern lifestyle feature.
Two spacious bedrooms downstairs (one with a soaring tin-pressed ceiling) are comfortably serviced by an excellent family bathroom that's been renovated to reflect the home's vintage heritage, while two additional bedrooms (both with an open fireplace) share the upstairs layout with a versatile study with ensuite and built-in shelving.
Furthermore, this rare find also boasts an abundance of storage space throughout, split-system heating/cooling, European laundry, triple-glazed windows, underground cellar and a remote double carport accessed via Kernan Street.
A short walk to Queens Park, Essendon train station, the No.59 tram, local foodie hotspots along Rose, Puckle and Napier streets and well-regarded public and private schools completes the appeal of this remarkable opportunity.
