CHARMING VICTORIAN NEAR-CITY SANCTUARY
Loads of character and charm plus near-city convenience and the bonus of rear off-street parking will draw buyers of all ages and life stages to this updated single fronted Victorian home, with a light and airy, reconfigured kitchen/dining/living area as its focal point.
Behind a pretty picket fence and cottage garden, the wide front verandah presents an idyllic setting for a quiet moment under majestic street trees. At the rear, the brick paved courtyard invites alfresco entertaining. The bedrooms retain their original period features and the family bathroom also has an old-style charm with provision for laundry facilities.
