147 Melbourne Avenue
Glenroy VIC 3046

Supremely situated and uniquely presented, this wonderful period home, offering all the mod cons but retaining beautiful heritage features, is an incredible offering, with an extended floorplan providing comfort and charm for large or extended families.
Set on well over a quarter of an acre (1085m2 approx) the beautiful home opens under soaring ceilings, past a formal front lounge with an open fireplace and exquisite art deco ceiling rose. The spacious solid timber kitchen at the heart of the home offers a full suite of appliances, ample storage and a breakfast bar, and accesses the formal dining room with the extraordinary addition of a 'Victorian Range' kitchen dating back to the early 20th Century. To the rear of the home is a sprawling living area, basking in lush green views of the back yard through tall windows.
Four large bedrooms include three with built-in robes, serviced by two bathrooms: one modern with a walk-in shower, and the other harking back to simpler times with subway tiles and a claw-footed bath. The expansive laundry is fit for any size family and offers lots of additional storage.
Outside, a meandering pathway leads from the rear verandah through the expansive backyard, with so much space to relax, entertain and play, and at the end of the long side driveway there's a carport and steel garage.
There are timber floors in all bedrooms, picture rails, wall panelling, decorative ceilings and lead-lit windows throughout the home, and ducted heating and cooling, split system cooling, ceiling fans, exterior awnings and an alarm system take care of the modern comforts, all secluded behind a fenced and gated front yard.
Centrally located just steps from Corpus Christie and Glenroy Central primary schools, Glenroy College is about a 10 minute walk. Glenroy station and central shopping are merely 550m away, and there's easy access to major arterials for travel in all directions.
