Welcome to this elegantly modernised Victorian home in Upper Woodstock. With spacious rooms, high ceilings, and original details like the stained glass front door, this residence beautifully blends the classic elegance of Victorian architecture with thoughtfully designed modern updates in the renovated kitchen and bathrooms.
The heart of the home is a large open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area, all bathed in morning light. A closed combustion wood-burning fireplace provides warmth in winter, while in summer, this space flows seamlessly onto a secluded outdoor deck, shaded by a Custard Apple tree brought from Madeira by the previous owners.
This home features three bedrooms, including a main en-suite equipped with expansive built-in cupboards and a full bathroom overlooking a beautifully landscaped private courtyard. A second bathroom with a shower, toilet, and basin adds convenience for family and guests.
Essential practicalities are accommodated with a garage large enough for both a car and a motorbike, separate laundry and scullery areas, discreetly located washing lines, and ample storage space throughout. Security is a priority, with an electric fence, CCTV cameras, an alarm system, and unobtrusive burglar bars. Additionally, the home emphasises sustainability with grey water recycling, an inverter, 12 solar panels, and a backup battery.
Ideally located, you'll enjoy easy access to all major highways and the city bowl, along with a short walk to favourite local shops, delis, and cafes such as Sainsbury’s, Moda, and Scarpetta. Several parks nearby provide spaces for dog walking and children to play.
This Victorian-style home offers a perfect blend of classic features and modern updates in a convenient, central location, making it suitable for a variety of residents, including professionals seeking a secure home or families wanting to live close to the city bowl.
