36 Newry Street, Fitzroy North, Vic 3068

This classic Victorian terrace brings a fresh feel to inner-north living. Original details bring personality to the front of the home, while light-filled contemporary spaces at the rear open to a courtyard garden with easy off-street parking from Percy Street, all within easy reach of the parks, villages and local haunts that make this pocket so sought after.

A traditional arched hallway leads past two generous double bedrooms, where high ceilings, ceiling roses and ornate cornices retain the home’s period character. In the front bedroom, an ornamental timber fireplace adds another reminder of its Victorian past.

A bright renovated bathroom pairs a freestanding bath and walk-in shower with generous storage, while a separate laundry and WC sit just along the hall. From here, the house opens into a generous open plan kitchen, living and dining space.

The smartly renovated kitchen offers plenty of bench and cupboard space, gas cooking, a dishwasher and peninsula seating, with room beyond for both full width dining and living. Full-height windows draw the garden into the space, while French doors extend the living area into the deep courtyard.

Sheltered beneath a mature tree and edged with garden beds, there’s room for outdoor dining and entertaining, with roller-door access to Percy Street providing additional flexibility. Heating and cooling, along with a security system, complete the picture.

Newry Street puts some of the inner north’s best-loved places within an easy walk. Edinburgh Gardens and Curtain Square are close enough to become part of the weekly routine, while Rathdowne Village, Fitzroy North Village and a great choice of pubs, cafes and restaurants are all close by. The 96 tram provides an easy connection to the CBD, yet back at home, Newry Street retains the residential feel that makes this pocket so appealing.
