The childhood home of Australian drumming legend Virgil Donati - and treasured by the family for almost fifty years - this welcoming c1920s home is defined by classic comfort and exciting future possibilities. Wide, inviting foyer introduces fabulous formal dining and lounge linked by pristine original pressed glass double doors while superbly spacious kitchen/meals has been meticulously maintained, revealing a colourful retro personality illuminated by the space's sunny northern aspect. Two similarly delightful bathrooms attend the two downstairs bedrooms including robed main under immaculate sculpted ceilings. Curving stairway invites exploration of an enticing loft-style lounge area that leads to a secluded third bedroom. Freestanding studio to the rear incorporates ample storage and external toilet. Immediately inviting as is, the benefits of renovation or development (SCTA) should not be overlooked, with side access to Loyola Ave highlighting future options for subdivision if so desired. The address itself is known for its unmatched lifestyle advantage, with city-bound trams, and both Lygon St and Sydney Rd cafes and eateries instantly accessible.
