21 Melba Street exemplifies the 'Goldilocks Principle' when looking for your new home. Not too close to the City with its hustle and bustle and not too far. Not brand new with a price tag to match but still a good property that you could move into tomorrow. Not a huge mansion but still a very generous block in a highly sought after Inner North suburb. Simply put, it's 'just right' and your chance to access a level of lifestyle and convenience that is hard to find anywhere else.
With a leafy, private frontage and expansive backyard, this can be your sanctuary. And when you do need to leave home, it's just a quick walk to the Downer Village shops, including the Gang Gang Cafe, Dickson shops with supermarkets and its many restaurants, as well as the Light Rail stop on Northbourne Avenue.
The house has been updated over the years, but there is still opportunity to add your own personal touches. The large covered deck to the rear is the perfect place to enjoy a cool drink on a summer afternoon, or entertain all year round. And beyond the deck lies an impressive backyard, home to an edible landscape. Here you can find Apricots, Apples, Plums, Walnuts, Grapes and Feijoa.
