11 Columban Avenue, Strathmore, Vic 3041

Retaining so many of the striking features that define Art Deco architecture, this tidy four-bedroom home in a prestigious street resides on a generous allotment of approximately 689m2, providing an immediately inviting abode with even more scope for the future (STCA). On the market for the first time in forty years and beautifully positioned in the sought-after Strathmore College zone, most of the home is solid brick, with two bedrooms added later in a style sympathetic to the original rooms. An emphasis on the use of rich timber, geometric ceiling patterns, original light fittings and elaborate leadlight furnishes the home with great character, and the floor plan comprises a lounge, formal dining with open fireplace, kitchen and separate meals. The interior is well complemented by a big rear garden with a tranquil pergola. You'll also find a pristine retro bathroom, ducted heating/cooling, long side driveway and tandem garage. Stroll to Napier Park, schools, trains, shops and cafes.
