40 Brewster Street, Essendon, Vic 3040

Standing with prominence and tracing its history back well-over a century, this north-facing Edwardian with two distinct frontages brings substance-backed comfort with stirring future potential to the revered Windy Hill Estate.

Beyond beautifully kept gardens and a façade bearing the name of an enclave east of Edinburgh, the home represents meticulous care and maintenance, countless enhancements, and a sense of warmth from decades of family enjoyment. Fretwork, cornices, a marble fireplace, and original leadlight, stained glass, and box windows headline the various details keeping heritage at the fore, while three substantial bedrooms, a master ensuite, oversized main bathroom, and versatile study/fourth bedroom give a family ample space to grow into.

• Timeless Edwardian on Windy Hill
• Façade framed by lush gardens
• Multiple oversized living spaces
• Entertainer’s yard, 3+ cars off-street
• Oval, restaurants, schools, transport

A formal living/dining room is the perfect counterpart to an expansive back section with a bluestone-encased fireplace, full wet bar, rumpus area, and sitting space, while well-placed windows capture light, streaming northern rays across an open meals area and well-equipped kitchen. Its own quiet domain away from the world, a low-maintenance courtyard integrates an alfresco pergola great for barbecues and family events, while at rear, a double carport and lofted studio/workspace make clever use of wide laneway frontage.

With an additional front carport and through-access for several extra cars securely off-street, the home’s other highlights include ducted heating, reverse-cycle heating/cooling, ceiling fans, and a large laundry, while a prestige position opposite the oval places cafés, restaurants, elite schools, pristine parks, trains, and CityLink within moments.
