Northcote VIC 3070

An exquisite example of Federation-style residential architecture, this beautiful, circa 1902, 2 bedroom residence is filled with its original character and ambient warmth in a wonderful position near High St and Fairfield Boathouse. Blessed also with the coveted prize of rear car access, the home's tender traditions have been lovingly maintained to present buyers with a compelling opportunity to cosmetically refresh or even extend (STCA).Greeted by a broad front veranda, traditional fretwork and leadlight windows, the home flow past a pair of very well-proportionned bedrooms towards its living areas. A wide hallway highlights rich Baltic pine flooring, towering ceilings and original ceiling roses as you discover a lounge and a dining room, each of which is arranged around fire places.At the very rear of the home, a well organised and functional kitchen overlooks a north-facing deck under the shade of a pergola. The opportunity to bring some of your own style or renovate to embrace an al fresco lifestyle is most compelling.Warmed by the gentle radiance of brand new hydronic heating and blessed with rear acr access this is an outstanding opportunity in a coveted, inner-northern location near cafes, restaurants, plenty of shopping, city-bound transport and the vast expanses of parkland that defines the Fairfield Boathouse.
