42 Taylor Street, Moonee Ponds, Vic 3039

One of six historic Lamboreen Villas (c1881), this Italianate-style balconied terrace has been enjoyed by generations of the one family since 1957 and now presents a rare lifestyle opportunity smack-bang in the heart of Moonee Ponds.

Beyond the landscaped front garden and gorgeous facade, discover a light-filled interior showcasing three large bedrooms (extra-large master) all with built-in robes, as well as two full bathrooms (one on each level). Enhancing its immediate appeal is a spacious formal lounge, adjoining dining room and central living room leading through to the neat kitchen with gas cooktop and dishwasher. Other fine features of this quintessential Victorian home include towering ceilings, solid timber floors and front balcony (from the master bedroom), along with an internal laundry and under-stair storeroom. Completing the picture is an outdoor entertaining area to the side and private north-facing yard to the rear, plus a single lock-up garage accessed via the ROW.

Walking distance to the area's boutique shops and major supermarkets along with a myriad of cafes, restaurants and wine bars to enjoy, it's also close to Moonee Ponds Station, junction trams and buses, as well as popular schools and the open spaces of Queens Park.
