First time offered since 1967, this cherished 3 bedroom Art Deco family treasure is rich in character and renovation promise on a desirable corner block. Gorgeous with its leadlights, glass paneled doors, high intricate ceilings, picture rails, potential fireplaces, display cabinets, Tasmanian Oak floorboards under the carpet and deep sills, this original classic sits high on the hill with a heritage overlay on the faade, featuring a wide entry foyer, 3 large bedrooms (2 with built in robes), a captivating lounge with gas heater and double doors to an elegant dining room, a vintage kitchen/meals area with servery into the light filled family room, an immaculate bathroom and a family size laundry with separate toilet. The east-facing terraced rear garden can take advantage of the northern sun with your strategically placed alfresco area or extension, while it also features a huge 4-car garage with further secure parking behind the gates (accessed via Denman Avenue). Renovated and extended in the 1970s with nods to a retro time, the home has been extensively insulated while also offering a solid brick structure in the original part of the home, while offering the extras of a brand new Braemar gas heater, security doors and ample storage to keep the comfort level at bay. In this leafy locale, a hop, skip and a jump to Toorak Road shops, cafes and tram, the gorgeous Back Creek Reserve, several bike trails and Burwood train station, zoned for Hartwell Primary School and Camberwell High School.
