2/3 Wellesley Road, Hawthorn, Vic 3122

In the heritage listed ‘Glenard,’ c1938 on the edge of Scotch Hill in the Glenferrie Hill precinct, this captivating three bedroom elevated ground floor apartment is steeped in romance and history. Welcomed by a common terrace in traditional gardens, this stately solid brick apartment has gracious proportions, featuring a secluded entrance, an elegant living room with double doors to a superb dining room/study, a majestic bedroom adjoining the modern classic bathroom, a sweet kitchen with rear access, two north facing bedrooms – one with under window storage and one with garden access. Glenard is considered to be typical of the late 1930s, blending clinker brick, red brick and Manganese brick bat dressings, with cast-cement urn balusters and moulded render window surrounds. There are large Cypress trees framing the façade to create a romantic French townhouse feel and offering common areas in the garden to relax and connect with the other residents. First time offered in 42 years, this tightly held charmer is freshly painted and features refinished Tasmanian Oak floorboards and new carpet to bring out its high ceilings and picture rails. With the option to renovate in time, this Art Deco apartment is complete with the comforts of a gas heater and a rear garage easily accessed from the kitchen door. In this blue chip pocket between Glenferrie Hill shops and Kooyong Village, offering train and tram services, beautiful walks along the Yarra River, acres of parkland along Gardiners Creek and only metres to the gates of Scotch College.
