Hawthorn East 14 Lilydale Grove

In a tucked-away north-facing position with spectacular nearby amenities, this Edwardian semi-detached terrace with a single-storey floorplan is unexpectedly spacious. Those who appreciate traditional character will marvel at the soaring ceilings with decorative cornices, evoking a sense of space and elegance.

At the front are 2 opulent bedrooms with built-in wardrobes, picture rails and full-height timber doors, sharing 2 bathrooms with toilets: 1 with a bath, the other a shower. In the centre of the house, an open-plan, timber kitchen with superb storage adjoins the carpeted living room, extending via a light-filled corridor to the bathrooms and 3rd bedroom. With access to a paved patio and the low-maintenance backyard, the spacious bedroom 3 may appeal as a 2nd living area for young professionals or families.

Beautiful and extremely liveable as is, there are opportunities for cosmetic refurbishment and modernisation in harmony with the timeless original character features.

Highlights include: gas heating, air-conditioners, ceiling fan, an ornate original fireplace and an alarm. Enjoying a convenient inner-city locale, walk to boutique shops, Hawthorn East train station, 3 trams, buses, reserves and bike tracks.
