14 The Crescent

Footscray VIC 3011

Positioned in one of Footscray’s most tightly held and picturesque streets, this substantial Federation home sits on an impressive 827sqm allotment and delivers a rare combination of period beauty, family space and future potential.

Behind its charming façade, the home immediately reveals its character with soaring decorative ceilings, leadlight windows, rich timber detailing and multiple original fireplaces. The scale is evident throughout, with four generous bedrooms and a series of formal and informal living zones that provide flexibility for growing families or those working from home.

The home’s floorplan is both expansive and beautifully traditional. A wide timber panelled hallway creates an immediate sense of arrival and connects the home from front to rear. The grand main bedroom is positioned at the front, complete with a striking round bay window, built in robes and its own fireplace. A fourth bedroom offers excellent flexibility as guest accommodation, featuring a private ensuite.

A refined parlour or formal living room, also positioned at the front of the home, showcases a second round bay window and fireplace, creating an elegant setting for entertaining or quiet retreat. A separate formal lounge room, rich with timber panelled walls, features its own fireplace, a box bay window and a servery connection to the kitchen, blending period charm with everyday practicality.

At the heart of the home, a warm and well appointed kitchen flows through to an expansive open plan dining and living area. Large doors open seamlessly to a private, established garden setting, creating an ideal environment for indoor outdoor living and entertaining.

The deep allotment is further enhanced by a wide side driveway leading through to a substantial garage and workshop, with the ability to comfortably accommodate up to eight vehicles off street, a rare and highly valuable feature in this location.

With its scale, layout and prominent position, the property also presents an outstanding opportunity for professionals or medical specialists seeking a home with the ability to operate a practice, subject to council approval, just moments from the new Footscray Hospital.

Located within walking distance to Footscray’s vibrant centre, Seddon Village, parklands, schools and transport, this is a landmark opportunity to secure a home of substance in a blue chip address.
