A freestanding Victorian, claiming a top spot on the city fringe, this single storey home exudes superb scope to become a beautiful base once again. Moments to everything, it’s ripe to richly reward enhancement, renovation and transformation, subject to relevant approvals.
Retaining leadlight, high ceilings, decorative cornices, rosettes and decorative fireplaces, the residence opens into a wide hall with timber fretwork. Beyond the hall, the floor plan opens into a large living room with timber-panelled walls, continuing to a kitchen with all the essentials, plus a dishwasher. Leadlight windows look to a covered outdoor area and deep backyard, ending in an automatic roller door. Accessing Younghusband Lane, this door makes secure off street parking simple.
Two of three bedrooms come with built-in robes, while the bathroom is concealed behind a barn door and highlights a rainfall shower. Contemporary fixtures add convenience to an external laundry and sheds boost storage space.
Only a 4 kilometre drive from the CBD, it’s so close to the city’s heart. Zoned to Kensington Primary and Mount Alexander College, a short walk to two train lines, JJ Holland Park, Macaulay Road shops and primary schools, the possibilities shine.
