Behind its charming single-fronted Victorian facade, this home provides room to spread out in an oasis of green in an inner-city location. Just minutes’ walk from a host of popular destinations, it is deceptively large with two living rooms, three bedrooms and a host of storage options, as well as a stunning cottage garden and easy access to undercover off-street parking for two cars. Off the hallway, flooded in natural light, are two bedrooms and large main bathroom, as well as a further two small rooms suited as walk-in robes, study nooks or storage/utility spaces. From there, the home opens up with a combined living, kitchen and dining area that features a wall of glass looking out to the outdoor entertaining and garden retreat. There’s plenty of room to entertain indoors and out in the warmer months, or head inside when it cools down to relax in front of the gas log fire. The kitchen, with a walk-in pantry, 900mm cooktop and mobile island bench, adjoins the full-size dining area. Upstairs is a second living area/study and spacious main bedroom with ensuite and walk-in robe, an ideal private retreat. From the living area, an outdoor deck provides views across Geelong, including the lights of GMHBA Stadium. Other features include ceiling fans, leadlight, traditional cornices and ceiling roses, picture rails, split-system unit and a separate workshop. Take a five-minute stroll to South Geelong train station, Kardinia Park and the Barwon River, with the CBD, waterfront, University Hospital and Paris end of Pakington St also an easy walk away.
