THE DEAL
Relishing uninterrupted frontage to acres of pristine parkland, this turn-key gem weaves leafy calm and superb convenience into an easy-care retreat ready for instant enjoyment, right by the Maribyrnong River.
Hidden privately and securely behind a high-fence entry, architectural faade, and front yard perfect for lounging among the trees, a clever interior spans three light-filled levels, offering both immediate comfort and scope to refresh in years to come.
Made for the entertainer, an expansive, middle-level living/dining area spills onto a substantial, north-facing terrace, with park and treetop outlooks a stunning backdrop for a family barbecue, morning coffee listening to the birds, or sunset drink with friends. A waterfall island, 900mm oven/gas stove, dishwasher, and extensive cabinetry feature in a stone-top kitchen capable of catering for any occasion, while other highlights include mirrored robes to all bedrooms, timber floors, an under-stair storeroom, video intercom, alarm, and private double garage.
Functionally first class and positionally impossible to match, the home sits between the retail, restaurant, and bar scenes of Footscray, Newmarket, and Kensington Village, with the soon-to-open Kensington Aquatic and Recreation Centre, scattered
parks and sporting fields, multiple train stations, arterial Dynon Road, and respected schools all nearby.
SEALS THE DEAL
