Solid, character-filled and well-positioned, this three-bedroom brick home presents a genuine opportunity in one of Melbourne's most sought-after inner-northern suburbs. Set on a generous allotment with a covered front porch, undercover alfresco, backyard and off street parking, the property combines comfortable proportions with the kind of authentic character that appeals to owner-occupiers, families and investors alike. Move in and love the home as is or customise to your own style. The living room sits at the heart of the home and immediately draws the eye with its striking exposed feature wall, complemented by a space heater, split-system heating and cooling, and a chandelier light fitting. Blinds throughout and carpet underfoot give the space a warm, easy feel. The kitchen and meals area is well-equipped with white cabinetry, a gas cooktop, oven, dishwasher and tiled splashback, with direct access through to the laundry. Three bedrooms are arranged for privacy and practicality, all featuring timber floorboards. The bathroom retains its original character with a bath and separate shower, with a separate WC provided for added convenience. A dedicated laundry with external access completes the functional layout. Outside, a timber-framed undercover alfresco extends the living space into the backyard, overlooking a grassed area enclosed by Colorbond fencing, with a garden shed providing useful storage. Positioned in close proximity to Methven Park, Fleming Park and Phillips Reserve for extended outdoor recreation. The home also sits metres from Coles Brunswick East on Nicholson Street and is close to Barkly Square and Nicholson Village for all shopping needs. Jewell Train Station is moments away, with tram connections on Lygon Street and M2 and M3 freeways also within easy reach.
