119 Woodland Street

Claiming a vast 1207m2 parcel (approx.), this extended classic offers outstanding scope to move in and revitalise over time, renovate from the ground up, or start anew with one or more residences on a premier Essendon boulevard (STCA). Set well-back within its grounds to be a quiet retreat among thriving plant life, the home keeps Art Deco design cues as a nod to its origins, ideal foundations in any future revamp. Four substantial bedrooms are served by robes, a tidy bathroom with a bathtub, separate second shower, and extra powder room, while a garden-viewing front lounge and broad dining room prove perfect complements to a parquetry-floor entertainer's area. Family and meals spaces adjoin a wrap-around kitchen boasting Bosch and Westinghouse appliances, effortlessly spilling outward to make hosting a breeze. A morning coffee and evening drink are a delight in a covered alfresco area, while an evergreen backyard capitalises on the block's sheer expanse to be brilliant for kids to run around. Other highlights include split-system heating/cooling, profuse storage, three sheds, a backyard WC (third), garage and carport, and several added driveway spaces. Right by Napier Park, Woodlands Park, and a walking path leading to dog-friendly Alf Pearce Reserve, it's only footsteps to city trains and trams, the local Coles, and the verve of Napier Street, Woodland Street, and North Essendon Village, while CityLink, DFO, and acclaimed public and private schools sit mere moments away.
