87 Barrow Street, Coburg, Vic 3058

Promoting outstanding space and versatility, this superbly reimagined home affords sumptuous family living among an esteemed and exclusive Coburg avenue.

With leadlight windows and a broad verandah enhancing its period allure, a cleverly configured plan occupies a considerable parcel, sprawling to comprise an array of impressive living and entertaining domains. Ensuring effortless flow from front to back, a broad entrance hall introduces four sizeable, downstairs bedrooms, together served by impressive robe storage, a chic central bathroom, and extravagant master ensuite. Making for warm and cosy winter evenings, a gas fire adorns a quiet sitting room/fourth bedroom, complementing a remarkable main section at plan's rear. Afforded a sense of space by towering ceilings and skylights, combined living and dining zones adjoin a gourmet kitchen, with upmarket Lusso, Belling, and Baumatic appliances joined by sleek stone benchtops, abundant cabinet space, and a wide, centrepiece island.

Unrivalled as an entertainer, alfresco dining and lounge areas sit under an expansive pergola, with a low-maintenance entertaining yard introducing a fenced-off spa, vegetable garden, dedicated gym, and rear office with adjoining bathroom. Illustrating the home's function focus, a superb upper level provides comprehensive accommodation all to itself, with spacious living, dining, sunroom, bedroom (fifth), and bathroom (fourth) areas adjoining a second, stone-top kitchen; together offering welcomed separation for visiting family or older teenagers.

Highlights include ceiling fans, reverse-cycle heating and cooling, Kempas and Baltic Pine floors, lower and upper laundries, an individual bath and spa plus separate WC to main bathroom, chairlift to the upper level ensuring future-proof occupation, and three driveway spaces. Zoned to respected St Bernard's Primary, Coburg Primary, and Coburg High, it's mere steps from Merri Creek parks and trails, sporting fields, Coburg Leisure Centre, and Sydney Road's renowned range of bars, restaurants, and cafés, with trams and trains ensuring a quick commute to the city centre.
