452 Rathdowne Street

Behind its classic Victorian façade, this terrace reveals far more than first impressions suggest, opening to a substantial rear extension and landscaped courtyard, featuring a welcome sense of space and light throughout. A double arched hallway and original high ceilings set the tone, while polished timber floors flow through three generous bedrooms. Complementing the home's period character, a bathroom with a separate bath and shower caters to modern living. A living room with a marble fireplace creates a warm and welcoming place to gather, while a spacious kitchen, dining and living area enjoys a lovely connection to the rear courtyard. A roller door at the rear provides the added convenience of vehicle access via a wide rear laneway. Upstairs, a fourth bedroom or home office offers valuable flexibility, accompanied by a balcony that captures easterly views across the surrounding heritage rooftops. A large cellar, gas ducted heating and a separate laundry complete the picture. Positioned along tree-lined Rathdowne Street, it is a short stroll to village cafés, restaurants and boutiques, trams on Nicholson and Lygon Streets, Princes Park and local schools, while Carlton Baths, universities, major medical facilities and the CBD are all close by.
