Drumcondra VIC 3215

This beautifully preserved and exceptionally located family home is set on 625sqm, offers an extremely flexible floorplan and is a blend of the original home and generous additions. The entry showcases the ageless design, featuring 12-foot ceilings, polished timber floors and leadlight windows. The hallway is elegant, welcoming, and commanding, offering access to the lounge room, 3 bedrooms, and a bathroom. The main lounge features an ornamental fireplace, solid timber features, double hung windows, and is generous in size. Recently recarpeted the bedrooms are spacious, they offer design flexibility, and could be any configuration of bedrooms, a nursery or home office. The home then leads through to the kitchen/ meals area, which is centred around an open fireplace, and offers the new owner the opportunity to add value through reconfiguring or renovating to suit. This area is the central hub of the home, with direct access to the backyard, secondary access to bedroom 3, and it then flows to the fourth bedroom, out to the multipurpose room and adjoining second bathroom. There is enormous potential for this area to be a master bedroom with an ensuite; a self-contained area for a family member looking for their own independence, or spacious family area. There is a semidetached building which can be accessed both from the house and externally, which is perfect to run a home business from, or could be removed to enhance the size of the north facing rear yard. The home as whole features good storage, ducted heating, a recently replaced dishwasher in the kitchen, and a new split system to the family area.

The property features rear lane access, and there is exceptional side access on the east side of the home accessing the expansive undercover carport and garage area. This exceptionally versatile space offers extraordinary undercover storage along with a timber lined double garage boasting its own bathroom with a shower and toilet. The enviable location offers the convenience of being within walking distance to the Geelong CBD and train station, moments from the Pakington Street caf precinct, and the bay is on your doorstep along with immediate access to the waterfront parkland and walking tracks.
