Having up to 5 bedrooms with 3 bathrooms including a separate studio, over the garage brings enormous flexibility to the character-rich setting of this surprisingly spacious and superbly renovated residence on a wide, community-minded street only metres to both Victoria Park and the banks of the Yarra River. Quietly nestled behind a beautiful tuckpointed Hawthorn brick façade in a heritage row of four, this elevated boom-style Victorian is a revelation of space, light and excellent quality designed for city-edge family living with incredible versatility in a highly sought-after location moments to vibrant Johnston Street and minutes to the CBD.
