13 Bayview Street, Northcote, Vic 3070

Uniting exquisite original features with a prized Ruckers Hill position and magnificent city views, this five bedroom plus study Federation home boasts a wealth of living areas and exciting allure. Introduced by a deep front garden, on an expansive block of approximately 746m2, the elegantly elevated abode opens to reveal handsome rooms with soaring ornamented ceilings, leadlight, timber fretwork and polished floorboards. A signature residence, it’s immediately enticing and destined to become a showpiece once more through inspired enhancements (subject to council approval). Presenting two large lounge rooms, a rumpus, dining room, kitchen and northerly courtyard, the layout is flexible, versatile and generous in design. Two family bathrooms are complemented by a shower room, bedrooms are serene and steeped in character and on the first floor glorious views sweep far and wide, culminating in a glittering city light show. Dynamic High Street destinations are just a stroll, including the shops, cinemas and cafes of Westgarth Village, as are trams, trains and schools. Zoned to Northcote High, this rare beauty is poised in a quiet cul-de-sac within easy reach of parks and a superbly short commute to the heart of the city.
