194 Mckean Street

Fitzroy North VIC 3068

This elegant Boom-period residence has been renovated to an exemplary standard on a deep garden block with stylish studio in one of North Fitzroy's premier streets. Just around the corner from Queens Parade cafes and minutes from the Edinburgh Gardens, the house, with its polychromatic brick faade and flourishing cottage garden, presents a handsome face to the street. A wide arched hallway opens to a gracious formal sitting room with deep cornicework and an open fireplace - this room could readily be converted to a large third bedroom. Also opening from the hall are a double bedroom with custom-built wardrobes, and a stylish tiled bathroom with separate bath and shower. The kitchen, superbly fitted with bespoke cabinetry, Carrara marble benchtops and premium appliances is open to a beautifully proportioned living and dining room, complete with fitted study zone and gas-glow log fire. The living area flows out through a wall of glass to an expansive deck overlooking the tranquil back garden, which is bordered by a charming artist's studio/guest room opening to a deck. (The deep block has side and rear right-of-way access.) Upstairs, the vast main bedroom/retreat, with large ensuite bathroom, takes full advantage of views over the garden and North Fitzroy. Features of this fine home include a concealed laundry, ducted airconditioning, hydronic heating, premium fittings and decorative period detail.
