Substantial Edwardian home with immense potential in Parkville's heart
Embracing an exclusive address in Melbourne's most esteemed parkside pocket, this double storey late Victorian property presents a unique opportunity to renovate/restore (STCA) and create a landmark family home. Boasting expansive original proportions graced with retained period grandeur and excellent ROW access. This historic property is nestled in a blue ribbon street, steps to Royal Park, University High School and Melbourne University, and walking distance to vibrant Lygon Street, Victoria Market, the hospital precinct and CBD trams. The ornate & extra wide façade opens onto a huge lounge with box bay windows and an elegant adjacent dining room, both with decorative fireplaces. The wide arched hallway leads to a large gas kitchen and meals area with a walk-in pantry. Upstairs are five bright bedrooms - two have Juliet balconies overlooking the beautiful streetscape, and one has an open fireplace. There is also a well-kept bathroom with a shower over a bath. At the rear of the property is a private courtyard with an external 2nd bathroom & toilet along with roller door car access from ROW. This grand home features soaring ceilings with rosettes, leadlight windows, under home storage/cellar and an impressive future ahead in this wonderful residential precinct.
