Size does matter. Don't be fooled by the outward appearance of this circa 1900 Brick and Iron green-titled home. Beyond the high front fence, this incredibly spacious semi-detached home is one of the largest of its type in the inner-city. A combination of 3.6-metre ceilings, extra-large bedrooms, and generous formal lounge have created an atmosphere of space and light.
This beautiful home has been in the same hands for 15 years and the current owners have retained the original features yet added the practicalities of modern life. The amount of storage in the home, inclusive of a loft storage space and cellar, is extraordinary. Full height cabinetry in the kitchen makes brilliant use of this space and a bookcase that covers an entire wall in the lounge will be very appealing to all buyers.
All the character features are here, decorative ceilings, solid timber floors, a decorative arch in the hallway, open fireplace, original front door with fanlight and bullnose veranda. The kitchen renovation saw full-height cupboards installed, stone benches and a splashback created from hand-made Spanish tiles. A stunning leadlight window fills this space with beautiful dappled light. The bathroom is renovated, comes complete with a bath and has a separate WC.
French doors open to a deck overlooking the generous rear garden. City glimpses from the deck highlight the future potential of exceptional city views if you were to build an upper level. Rear access from the right of way through double gates at the rear of the property allows for off-street parking which is an absolute bonus in this area.
This location is unsurpassed in terms of liveability as it is surrounded by cafes, restaurants, and bars. Think Wines of While, Shadow Wine Bar, Tarts cafe, Sayers Sister, Nine Fine Food, and the new kid on the block Miller and Baker. This home is also walking distance to both beautiful Hyde Park and the CBD.
Properties like this rarely come on to the market so don't miss out.
