2 Schofield Street

In a happy collision of eras, this family home has been lovingly extended and updated through the decades from the roaring 20's, through mid-century, to the 70's and beyond, it has met the lifestyle requirements of each owner. Now it's time for another potential revamp of the 673sqm (approx.) lot in unquestionably one of Essendon's most connected and amenity rich locations. Eminently liveable as is, but with ample scope to reimagine, the current adaptable floorplan offers an eclectic mix of living and working spaces. Parquetry flooring and high ceilings adorn the hallway entrance, meandering lounge, and gracious formal dining with its original ceiling detail. Five bedrooms (BIR's), share two bathrooms, one with shower and a second with spa bath and separate shower, while the master bedroom has a walk-in wardrobe and ensuite (shower). At the centre of the home, a stone topped modern kitchen with 900mm stainless steel oven/gas cooktop, dishwasher, and long island/breakfast bar adjoins family living, with door out to a covered and paved alfresco. A modern laundry, ducted heating/evaporative cooling, single lock up garage, bungalow rumpus, shed, carport and extended side driveway parking complete a property ripe with possibilities to renovate, rebuild or develop (STCA). Enjoy the walkability of the area's proximity to North Essendon Village cafes, shops and restaurants, city-bound trams and Glenbervie Station. Close to an array of prestige schools (Strathmore Secondary College zoned), parks, Keilor Road and Citylink.
