23 Mackenzie Street

Placed privately and peacefully in a pocket that's among Brunswick's best, this reimagined Victorian embraces the inner-northern lifestyle, delivering calm, character, and carefree comfort with the convenience to match. One of a handful in its terrace row with roots pre-dating Federation, a classically expressive, endlessly alluring façade preludes interiors weaving period warmth with contemporary ease. Two substantial bedrooms both enjoy robes and leafy outlooks, introduced en route to a central dining room, smart bathroom with a bath and laundry, and rear section where a soaring ceiling, clerestory windows, and all-day sun create real occasion. French doors reveal an entertainer's backyard enlivened with colourful foliage, while other highlights range from a Bosch and Asko-equipped kitchen to comprehensive heating/cooling, hardwood floors, street parking, old-world details, and rear access via Davison Street. Famous A1 and Ovens Street Bakeries, coffee favourites Bench and ONA, matcha icon Osoi, and Sydney Road's day-and-night verve sit within metres, as do Anstey Station, various trams, and bike paths all making city commutes a breeze.
