4 Tonkin Ave, Coburg North is a 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom House with 2 parking spaces and was built in 1940. The property has a land size of 490m2 and floor size of 225m2. While the property is not currently for sale or for rent, it was last sold in August 2023.
Stunningly extended and renovated in 2017, this classic 1920s charmer is now a magnificent double-storey marvel sure to exceed even the most discerning of family demands.
The home's original timber has been beautifully dressed and repurposed into bespoke joinery throughout, stylishly infusing this light-filled layout with a refined character suited to its idyllic Merlynston address.
Three front bedrooms offer ample built-in robing and gorgeous hardwood flooring, all served by a luxe fully-tiled bathroom with bathtub, rainfall shower and floating mirrored vanity plus adjacent powder room and linen storage.
A formal study and large well-appointed laundry smartly separate the living and bedrooms, while flowing ahead are the spacious open plan lounge and dining zones bathed in brilliant northern sunlight via the soaring ceiling.
Incorporated here is the flawless entertainer's kitchen with butler's pantry, sparkling tiled splashback, high-end appliances and sleek stone benchtops with a custom-made timber bench to fit the waterfall-edge breakfast bar.
Upstairs adds an expansive 2nd lounge with a lovely custom bookcase, branching into the resplendent master bedroom where a fitted walk-through robe reveals a pristine private ensuite with mirrored vanity, shower and WC.
Entertain outdoors with a covered alfresco deck wrapping elegantly around the rear of the home, bordered by a pebbled courtyard with stairs up to the elevated grassed backyard where the kids are free to play.
The front of the home retains the classic charm of the picket fence and tidy garden, allowing secure roller-door side access down to the backyard with off-street parking available for 2 cars.
Merlynston has attracted a strong community of young families where friendly neighbours ensure a quiet and safe community. It's an easy stroll to beloved local cafs, plus one of Melbourne's most prized bakeries in Back Alley Bakes.
Walk easily to peaceful parkland and playgrounds, or local amenities such as the doctor, pharmacy and post office. Merlynston Station is a 7-minute walk away for easy travel to the CBD, or you can explore all of the lively shopping, restaurants, bars and pubs along nearby Sydney Road.
