11 Bath Street, Abbotsford, Vic 3067

The beauty of this Hawthorn brick Victorian on blue stone foundations, which would be significant anywhere, is hugely enhanced by the unique lifestyle appeal of its setting on Abbotsford's most exclusive street overlooking the evocative environs of Victoria Park. Transformed from an iconic VFL venue to a fabulous community asset, the park complements a home accompanied by an allotment offering exceptional depth and second frontage to Trenerry Crescent. Two generous double bedrooms lead along a classical arched hall to central sitting and dining rooms where bright light from French doors to a north facing courtyard shines on freshly polished Baltic floorboards. A separate, stylishly updated kitchen defined by slate floors flows to a flexible additional living area and beyond to a lush, leafy rear courtyard. The modern bathroom completes a home last sold 30 years ago, poised to provide instant enjoyment, and further potential, close to the Convent precinct and the Capital City Trail.
