150 Johnston Street

A genuinely rare opening of position and potential in the very heart of Fitzroy, this 2-level Victorian terrace offered for the first time in decades looks forward with approved plans and permits to a clever 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom transformation including a rooftop deck and secure off-street parking. A classic cottage-style profile with an original slate roof introduces a compelling blank canvas where a recent re-stumping (at the front) and rear laneway access provide a solid, practical and clear foundation for the council-endorsed renovation ahead. Grounds for enormous excitement in the inner-north's premium lifestyle hub, get amongst the action and craft a completely private and peaceful sanctuary in a historic terrace row with an architectural design of remarkable space, style and functionality extending over 2 amazing levels only metres to Brunswick Street. The brilliant new vision unfolds with a considered dual-level layout where a north-facing front lounge room and a ground-floor bedroom with built-in robes and lightwell access, extends to a central bathroom with a laundry space and an open-plan kitchen and family dining area with a pantry and bifold doors. Just outside is a generous courtyard secured with a roller door for easy vehicle access, while a sunny and set-back rooftop deck delivers a standout retreat for 2 first-floor bedrooms including a fabulous main with its own ensuite bathroom. Implement the perfect blueprint for future success to commence construction without delay, or devise drawings of your own if desired (STCA), and relish the location within a matter of only footsteps to surrounding amenities from cafes, bakeries, restaurants and wine bars, to shops, supermarkets, galleries and trams, along with the Fitzroy Market, schools and parkland.
