Brunswick East VIC 3057

There's no location more coveted in Brunswick East than Barkly Street. And there's no opportunity rarer than this chance to own a generous square shaped block of 328 square metres approx. with rear right of way via Glew Street! Whether you choose to reimagine this retro northside favorite or redevelop (STCA), there's no ignoring the incredible potential offered by such a uniquely sizable piece of land so close to both Lygon and Nicholson Streets, just a swift walk to Barkly Square, popular restaurants, village shopping and exceptional schools. Featuring a traditional floorplan, this much-loved family residence enjoys four giant bedrooms bright with natural light - master with chandelier feature and unique triple-faceted window views to Barkly Street. It enjoys a generous living/dining zone adjacent to a retro kitchen replete with quality Westinghouse cooker, double sink, plentiful bench space and storage. The bathroom features corner shower, bath, smoked-glass lighting straight out of the 1970's and natural ventilation. Outside, discover a stupendously large rear yard featuring undercover porch, laundry, WC, veggie patches, a leafy fig tree, garage with right of way to Glew St and quirky mid-century outhouses & storage sheds. Ideally located between two tram lines going straight to the CBD in what is arguably Melbourne's most hotly-contested postcode - this property puts you at the heart of a buzzing community who love eating Pizza at 400 Gradi, shopping at Barkly Square, having coffee at Pope Joan, busting a move at No Lights No Lycra and lazily cycling the Merri Creek. Want in? One thing's for sure: you won't soon see another opportunity like this on Barkly Street!
