This three-bedroom, two-bathroom, open plan living home that has been architecturally renovated to perfection is truly something special. And with its premium position in the heart of vibrant Footscray this is a rare find you can’t go past.

You are greeted by a period home with well-kept garden complete with original lacework, ceiling roses and doors that have been lovingly preserved. Two bedrooms welcome you with well-appointed storage in both. A Jack and Jill style bathroom/ensuite off the master is packed with storage and personality.

The hallway leads to an architectural open-plan renovation that maximises the natural light with its peaked roof and includes features of the original home in the form of bricks and floorboards incorporated as design features. The stairs lead to a mezzanine style third bedroom/study, family bathroom and clever European laundry making the most of the roof line.

The open plan area is an entertainer’s paradise with a well-appointed kitchen for budding chefs, loads of storage and room to entertain. Cosy up in winter with the cast iron French fire place or entertain in summer on the deck surrounded by beautiful garden beds, established palm and fig trees.
