Stunning c1905 family home in the heart of Fairfield
Beyond the gracious semi-detached façade is a wide arched hallway flowing to three spacious bedrooms all with decorative fireplaces and 3.38m ceilings (two have custom built-ins), serviced by a sparkling modern bathroom with a bath and separate shower. Nearby is a large dedicated study alcove. Polished hardwood floors lead to a superb living and dining zone, capturing garden views and abundant natural light at the back, and gourmet stone kitchen with a DeLonghi oven, gas cooktop, Bosch dishwasher, breakfast bar and plentiful cabinetry.
Bi-fold glass doors afford a seamless transition to the deluxe undercover deck and built-in barbeque, great for year-round alfresco dining, and fantastic fully fitted studio overlooking the tranquil surrounds – great for a home office, home business (with side access) or children’s retreat.
The property’s lush native gardens are designed by Emmaline Bowman of STEM Landscape Architecture, winner of the City of Melbourne ‘Award of Excellence for Best in Show’ at the 2024 Melbourne International Flower and Garden Show. Complete with an automated watering system, it offers a thriving and sustainable green environment that integrates existing fruit trees.
Recently reroofed and reinsulated, the home also has a European laundry, ducted heating/cooling, split system air-conditioning to the studio, attic storage, solar panels and external storage. A walkway linking Arthur Street to Station Street provides direct access to cafes, supermarkets, shops and medical facilities. Additionally, it is placed just a short stroll to Breavington Park, Fairfield Primary School (zoned), Yarra Bend and Fairfield train station.
