Californian Captivation
Open design, quality features and timeless period charm are the hallmarks of this gorgeous home providing a ready-made lifestyle opportunity in a serene south-of-Bell Street location. Surrounded by established gardens, the home's inviting interior comprises three generous bedrooms (two with BIRs) and period-inspired central bathroom, spacious open-plan living/dining area and country-style kitchen with timber cabinets and dishwasher. Add to this split-system heating and cooling (three units), polished timber floors, laundry and separate WC, plus French doors to a delightful north-facing backyard garden with extensive brick paving and secure carport to ROW. Positioned for absolute convenience, it's walking distance to St Georges Road trams and Bell Station, High Street shops and cafes, as well as easy access to local parks, schools and vibrant Preston Market.
Owners Notes
Written by Zachariah, 10 years old (with help from his Mum).
This is why living in my house is really cool (and believe me, I know what I’m talking about, I’ve lived here my whole life!):
- I have my own room – and it’s big enough for all my things, so I don’t have to pack everything up every day
- The people on the street are really nice
- I can walk to school (Thornbury Primary School is the best!)
- I can play down-ball and soccer in the right of way at the back of the house (Mum can see me if I keep the garage door open)
- There’s a park just down the street, and another across the road
- It’s great fun playing sliding games on the floor boards down the hallway
- There’s a dishwasher, so I don’t have to wash dishes like some of my friends
- We’re growing fruit trees in the backyard!
- There’s heaps of shops and yummy places to eat close by (and even if we drive we get there really quickly)
- When it rains, we can drive into our carport instead of having to park down the street and getting wet
I’m kind of sad to be leaving this house – but it’s too big for us right now, and our next place is going to be really great too.
You should totally ask your parents to buy this house. I hope you have as much fun in this house as I’ve had!
Vendor Review
Selling a family home
Selling a family home can involve a lot more for vendors than just the financial decisions involved in selling a piece of real estate, and Michelle Portelli and her team at Nelson Alexander seem to really understand this. Michelle was always helpful, clear and respectful in her interactions with us as vendors. We felt we were kept fully informed throughout the process, and were given the time and support to make our decisions. We were also impressed by the professionalism and attention to detail displayed by Michelle and her team. They definitely made what could have been a very difficult process much less stressful and more manageable.
