Large house in fabulous suburb of Fitzroy, easy walk to City/universities

Description

This beautiful, recently decorated late 19th-century house is situated at the city end of Fitzroy, Melbourne's oldest suburb, in a quiet tree-lined street, around the corner from one of Fitzroy's finest wining, dining and shopping streets. Behind the front garden and veranda is a much loved, large four-bedroomed house - with one bedroom set up as a guest study/small bedroom and another as my private study. Leading off a long hallway on the ground floor are traditional living and dining rooms, retaining original features, as well as a laundry room/pantry, and toilet. The house opens out at the back to a beautiful light-filled room with a well-equipped open plan kitchen, dining and living space, facing on to a verdant private garden. Ducted heating throughout. Upstairs the main bedroom and luxurious ensuite with shower and bath straddle the front of the house. Also at the front is my private study. Heading towards the back of the house is another double bedroom facing out to the garden, the guest study with a small sofa bed (occasional/light use only) and a newly refurbished guest bathroom. This house will easily accommodate a family (with ornament-friendly children), but it is also ideal for one or two couples, or singles who enjoy space, privacy and access to outdoor living. Melbourne is a bike-friendly city and two bikes are available. The house is a few minutes walk from two beautiful parks and it is possible to walk almost anywhere in the city, or, the nearest tram stop is a couple of hundred metres away and another stop, a few minutes away, providing access to most parts of the city/beach. Visitor parking permit provided. References essential. Happy to discuss loaning my car.
