The beauty of a bygone era and a brilliant location offer exciting options and exceptional character. Built in 1911, three-bedroom brick Edwardian home has all the hallmarks of the era including superb street appeal, high pressed-metal ceilings, Baltic pine floors and three working fireplaces. The single-level spaciousness of three living and dining areas provides excellent zoning, and there's scope to add a contemporary edge or rebuild on 480 square metres approx STCA. Today's essentials are ready to love, including a generous main bedroom with an ensuite bathroom, built-in and walk-in wardrobes. Inspection is a must to appreciate the elegance and features that have made this a cherished address for more than 100 years. The private north-facing backyard has a magnificent olive tree, decking and play space, there's a return verandah with tessellated tiles, and leadlight windows. Central location is convenient and sought-after, around the corner from Orrong Road's Metro supermarket, just a few blocks from cafes and shops, and you can walk to trams and schools in minutes.
