Behind the red brick, decorative gables and north-facing wraparound verandah is a property with far more to offer than first meets the eye. Two attached homes, a huge workshop and approximately 845 square metres give you room to bring generations together, pursue a renovation project or generate additional income while staying on site.
The larger residence carries its period character through high ceilings, chandeliers catching the light, a long entrance hall and fireplaces in two of its three robed bedrooms. French doors connect the formal living room to the verandah, making this a lovely spot to open up on a warm afternoon. Further in, the lounge, dining room and timber kitchen form a connected sweep of everyday living space, with a dishwasher and walk-in pantry keeping the practicalities covered.
A central bathroom serves the bedrooms, while a second bathroom and laundry are accessed from the rear patio. Steps lead down to the garden, with established planting and ample space to relax outside or potter.
The two-bedroom home has its own entrance, a living room with a gas heater, a full kitchen, robes in both bedrooms, a bathroom with laundry facilities and a covered patio. Parents or adult children can be close by while keeping their own routines, meals and front door. Alternatively, consider living in one and letting the other, or exploring the rental potential of both.
Then there's the large workshop. With a sink and three storerooms, it's well set up for tools, collections and hands-on work, or scope to investigate a home business, subject to any required approvals.
Comfortable as they stand, the homes are ready for renovation ideas to take shape over time. Retain the two-home arrangement or imagine how the existing interiors could evolve into a super-generous multigenerational home.
Trams run nearby, Moonee Ponds Station is close at hand, and Moonee Ponds Central and the cafés of Puckle Street and Mount Alexander Road cover everything from the weekly shop to Saturday brunch. Jog around Ormond Park or enjoy a picnic by Queens Park's lake. CityLink puts the city within easy reach, and the address is zoned for Ascot Vale Primary and Mount Alexander 7-12 College.
