2/27-29 Brougham Street, Kew, Vic 3101

There’s something lovely about a home you can walk straight into. This ground-floor haven has its own gated entry and a sunny front porch, so there are no stairs to climb and no juggling shopping bags in a lift.

The living and dining room has an appealing openness, with painted brickwork giving the interior its individual character. The adjoining kitchen has been refurbished with white cabinetry, an upright stove and long stretches of benchtop, with a window over the sink bringing in natural light.

Two bedrooms, each with built-in robes, sit along the hallway, together with a renovated bathroom featuring marble-look tiling, a glass-enclosed shower and a modern vanity. There’s also a separate toilet, split-system air conditioner, washing machine taps and a parking space, though you might find it gets very little use.

That’s because just about everything is on foot. Woolworths is metres away, which makes a forgotten carton of milk barely an errand, and the cafés, restaurants and shops of High Street and Kew Junction are a short stroll. Trams are close by for trips into the city, and Yarra Bend Park isn’t far when you feel like a long riverside wander.

For downsizers keen to shed the stairs but not their independence, or anyone who would rather leave their car keys in the drawer, this move-in-ready home makes a lot of sense.

We donate a portion of our fee from every property transaction to the Woodards Foundation to support people experiencing homelessness, family violence and social isolation.
