THE DEAL

Showing the class and charm of its period roots, this Art Deco home and expansive holding offer families, builders, and investors outstanding potential, equally suited to a tasteful refresh, extension up and outward, or development using two distinct frontages (STCA).

Preceded by the decorative brickwork, leadlight windows, and portico of its c1930s origins, a single-level interior offers a layout that’s both practical and versatile. Substantial front lounge and dining zones complement back meals, family, and storage-rich kitchen areas, while a skylit bathroom and separate laundry/powder room service four generous bedrooms. With a considerable backyard taking in all-day northern sunlight, ample room exists for a large pool alongside entertaining and kids’ play spaces, while other highlights of the home include heating and cooling, timber floors, intricate ceilings, ornamental fireplaces, a carport, and driveway comfortably housing several cars.

One of suburban Melbourne’s true hidden gems, the surrounding neighbourhood sits moments from the best of Moonee Ponds and Essendon, with Tilba, Fawkner, and Buckley Street cafés, restaurants, bars, and shops, Puckle Street-bound buses, Aberfeldie Park’s peaceful expanses, and scenic Maribyrnong River trails all just steps away.

SEALS THE DEAL

One of very few, north-facing opportunities in its privileged locale, with a wide laneway along the side of the block streamlining construction access and broadening architectural possibilities.
