49 Bulla Road

A standout in every respect from its modern touches to its classical details and the craftsmanship not found in the homes of today, this attic-style classic delivers comfortable, adaptable access to the beloved Essendon lifestyle. Striking a stance to remember with its curved portico and balcony, signature forms, and deep setback, a timeless façade makes way for an interior revamped with the family in mind. A robe-lined master and stylish bathroom feature on a ground floor to enable one-level living, while above, the raked roof pitch gives depth, sun streams in from dawn to dusk, and robes plus a guest ensuite accompany bedrooms two and three. Making the most of light and space, a substantial front living area steps through to an open dining zone and sunroom study/lounge hidden away at rear, continuing into a low-maintenance backyard perfect for hosting friends and family, firing up the barbecue, and chatting into the night. Stone benchtops, upscale appliances, and ample storage ensure the gourmet kitchen can handle any occasion, while other highlights range from hydronic heating and split-system heating/cooling to solid timber floors, a large laundry, rain shower over bath, parking for 3 behind an electric gate, and various period features keeping character alive. On the cusp of North Essendon Village to place the 59 Tram, great coffee, diverse cuisine, boutique shops, and the local Coles within the easiest of strolls, it's never far to freeways for city and cross-town commutes, retail at DFO, parks and playgrounds, the bustle of Keilor Road, zoned Buckley Park College/Essendon North Primary, and all of the area's elite private schools.
