Yes, there are the classic period touches including the tuck-pointed brickwork, fireplaces (two) and ceiling roses (two), but this home also has contemporary features such as a smart kitchen, ducted heating and an indoor-outdoor orientation.
The latter comes in the form of sliding door access from the kitchen to a side courtyard and from the communal living area to a paved rear yard/garden zone.
Those who appreciate the inner urban vibe will notice the 254sqm property is close to shops, public transport, schools and Melbourne’s CBD.
Jellis Craig Clifton Hill sales agent Danielle Reynolds says while the home has a strong period feel it has been renovated over the last 15 years to ensure it offers modern comfort and convenience.
Ms Reynolds says this type of property rarely get offered for sale.
“Clifton Hill is very tightly held and not many of these sorts of properties come up very often and they are very sought after,” Ms Reynolds says.
“Everyone (who lives there) wants to stay in Clifton Hill because it is very popular. It has a village atmosphere. It has good access to parklands, the CBD, public transport (tram, bus and rail) and primary schools.”
The sales agent reports there has been “good interest” in the property.
She believes the home will appeal to a range of potential buyers including “professional types, families and people down-sizing”.
“It will suit family buyers as well as down-sizers because there is plenty of room for the grand kids,” Ms Reynolds says.
