Backing directly onto parkland in a quiet pocket by vibrant Lygon Street is the dream inner-city setting of this superb 2 bedroom Victorian terrace where a north-facing rear garden and a lock-up garage bring further excitement to a sensational lifestyle opportunity. Semi-detached in a corner position adjoining Methven Park, this outstanding solid brick residence combines so many amazing attributes in a highly sought-after package that even fussy buyers looking for more will be totally impressed by its single-level floorplan, low-maintenance ease and coveted Northcote High School zoning. A classically attractive façade introduces an easy-living and light-filled interior where a sky-lit entrance hallway with a high ceiling and polished floorboards leads to 2 generously-proportioned bedrooms with both including sizable built-in robes. A full-width living room with east and north-facing glazing offers loads of space to spread out in complete comfort, while further is an extra-large central bathroom that’s well designed and modern including a walk-in shower and a dedicated laundry area with storage. A smart all-electric kitchen with stainless-steel appliances and ample storage is an absolute delight that extends seamlessly through to a sunlit meals area with fixed seating, a separate toilet and further out to the private north-rear courtyard that’s a wonderful setting both leafy and sunny including secure side gate access. The bonus of a bright garage with a roller door to Methven Street is enhanced by its incredible flexibility, as with timber and glass sliding door access from the courtyard, it also functions perfectly well as a creative studio or a covered alfresco area. Also offers evaporative cooling. One of only a select few in the area that immediately adjoins parkland, this exceptional sanctuary presents a genuinely rare opening enhanced by quick and easy access to cafes, restaurants, wine bars, East Brunswick Village shopping, trams, Sydney Road and train station, CERES and Merri Creek nature trails.
