Nestled among the most picturesque of leafy boulevards, 'Park View' presents enhanced Victorian elegance opposite the lush expanses of Royal Park. Infinitely endearing, a 19th-century facade displays the era's hallmark features, with a high-set entry hall illustrating intricate detail. Doubling as an expansive master suite, a front sitting room shows an original fireplace with a marble mantle, with a second, timber fireplace a charming centrepiece to an adjoining living zone. With clever additions throughout, a smart skylight bathes each level in natural rays, while the plan's rear displays an open living/dining zone and covered alfresco, served by a gourmet kitchen with timber benchtops and stainless-steel appliances. A dedicated study space adorns a flowing second storey, with a trio of substantial bedrooms joined by east and west-facing balconies, affording breathtaking sunrise and sunset views respectively. Storage in abundance, bespoke built-in robes line two bedrooms, with a generous third providing an additional fireplace. Catering to family life, a downstairs powder room complements an upper-floor main bathroom with stylish, gold-coloured accents, a double shower, and a standalone clawfoot bath. With a wide and easily accessed ROW at rear (Little Curran St), a paved backyard with shed ensures easy upkeep, while further standouts include a concealed European laundry with copious storage, Baltic pine floorboards, hydronic heating, split system cooling, and NBN connectivity. Extensively updated while staying true to its old-world character, it's moments from the elite schools and universities of North Melbourne and Parkville, with various transport, blissful parklands, sporting fields/clubs, major hospitals, vibrant cafes, acclaimed restaurants, and popular nightspots only a short walk away.
