40 Essex Street, Pascoe Vale VIC 3044

First time offered in over 60 years, this mid-century home provides the perfect starting point for an inspired renovation or sizeable blank canvas on which to build your brand-new dream home (STCA) - all in the sought-after Strathmore Secondary College zone. Beyond its distinctive clinker-brick facade, the home's current floorplan comprises two bedrooms (large master) with robes and central bathroom, front lounge, adjoining dining room and neat kitchen/meals area through to the rear sunroom. Features include high Art Deco ceilings, gas heater and wall-mounted air conditioner (both in the lounge), laundry and separate WC, plus the added appeal of a north-facing backyard. Derby Street buses around the corner and walking distance to the open spaces of Raeburn Reserve, it's also close to local shops and cafes, popular primary schools and Coburg North Shopping Village, as well as easy access to Citylink/Tullamarine Freeway.
