18 Ogilvie Street

Loved and maintained over its life and a true classic of its Essendon enclave, this weatherboard prize with two distinct frontages offers a warm, comfortable family environment with equal potential as a site for a marquee build. Framed by greenery and claiming a high-side stance, the abode showcases all the charm and character of its post-war origins. Without a thing to do before moving in, three generous bedrooms are accompanied by a renovated main bathroom with a heated towel rack and second bathroom at rear, while a quiet front lounge/fourth bedroom and back family area prove perfect counterparts to a renewed kitchen and open dining space.
