A stylish and sympathetic take on a period classic, this invigorated showpiece deftly blends upscale luxuries and timeless character in a prized, family-friendly pocket. Its old-world charm augmented by leadlight windows, Baltic pine floors, and a range of original intricacies, elaborate ceilings soar above a sublime front section, with three considerable bedrooms surrounding a quiet lounge/dining area awash with all-day northern rays. A considered entertainer, high-grade stone benchtops grace a gourmet kitchen with premium appliances, with a neighbouring family domain flowing seamlessly into a broad alfresco. Kept private by mature trees, a serene backyard offers ample room for energetic kids, with a standalone rear studio a perfect complement to a professional’s study. A trendy bathroom is adorned with chic gold tapware, a twin-basin, stone-top vanity, and focal, stained-glass window, while other highlights include ducted heating/cooling, 18 solar panels, a powder room, alarm, cleverly concealed laundry, and driveway parking. Its surrounds rich in cafés, restaurants, and parks, the home sits near a range of respected schools, with 58 trams and CityLink ensuring quick city access.
