131 Park Drive

Parkville VIC 3052

Little did William Vaughan, a builder from the small town of Doneraile in County Cork, ever envisage that his fine house built back in 1883 would be so magnificently preserved 137 years later. This classic two-storey Victorian terrace is situated in prestigious Park Drive, one of inner Melbourne's premier streetscapes. It enjoys the quiet serenity of a wide, tree lined street, yet so close to Melbourne's major tertiary and medical precincts, and only one block away from the Royal Parklands. Delightfully presented, with its distinctive tuck pointed facade, the house boasts a flexible floorplan that will attract both savvy investors and buyers searching for a family home within this renowned South Parkville pocket. The split level design comprises ground level entrance hall, formal lounge, bedroom and a separate modern kitchen. The dining area overlooks the garden with its deep allotment, through to Ievers Reserve at the rear, providing excellent car access. The accommodation upstairs provides a superb master bedroom with a balcony overlooking a leafy vista, a third bedroom, a study/nursery and a large bathroom. Features traditional high ceilings, cornices, arched hallway, marble fireplaces, and new carpets. Situated in a highly coveted location within the catchment area of University High School, this inviting and sizeable home provides a unique city fringe sanctuary with a brilliant scope for extension (STCA).
