12 Kinkora Road, Reservoir, Vic 3073

Commanding a delightful street presence this three-bedroom period home boasts a complete quality renovation and enviable location bordering Preston and the Oakhill Estate, and is eagerly awaiting a new family to add to this established street close to public transport and quality schools.

Behind the landscaped gardens and captivating facade, the charm of this home continues with a large romantic master bedroom with pristine ensuite flowing off the wide and welcoming hallway with fretwork arch and period chandelier framing the picturesque front garden aspect.

Two additional bedrooms with a second central, main bathroom flow seamlessly into the home's centerpiece of the spacious open plan living area with expansive kitchen with its four metre splash-back window and the Scandinavian-influenced living and dining areas, with French doors opening onto the sunny rear deck and the tranquility of landscaped lawns, seating areas, fruit trees and veggie beds.

Period features abound in this solidly constructed home with fretwork, cornices, light fittings and fixtures, polished Baltic pine floorboards, and high ceiling's throughout, while the kitchen boasts a pantry, stainless steel oven and induction cooktop. A European laundry, central gas heating and a split system air conditioner/heating and a large two-car garage further complement this home.

As a future resident of this rare find, enjoy an exceptional level of convenience with the train, tram and Preston Primary and Secondary colleges and Holy Name Primary, nearby. The number 86 tram is a two-minute walk which will transport you to the CBD, High Street cafes and bars, La Trobe Uni and the Summerhill shops, while the bus goes to Northland Shopping Centre. Walk around the corner to find hip cafes and bars such as the delightfully popular Sonny's Botega and Stray Neighbor, with new boutique shops opening soon.

Although fully renovated, there is potential for the growing family to expand over time on this 520sq meter block by going up to take advantage of the spectacular views, or out to either side with an additional bedroom and verandahs around all three sides - the scope is limited only by your imagination.
