13 Bowen Street, Balaclava, Vic 3183

Having undergone a recent refurbishment, this double-fronted solid brick 3-bedroom dwelling delightfully blends classic period features and tasteful modern design elements to create a charming and functional family home.

With high ceilings and timber floors, the entrance hallway leads past the three bedrooms, two with built-in robes ? the generous master also featuring a bay window and an open fireplace.

To the rear, a contemporary renovation has opened up the living areas to accommodate spacious lounge and dining zones warmed by a period open fireplace, while the designer kitchen is fitted out with a breakfast bar, Caesarstone benchtops, Miele appliances and an integrated dishwasher.

Sliding doors reveal a private, brick-paved courtyard in low-maintenance and drought-proof landscaped garden surrounds, with the combination of undercover and open-air spaces allowing for fabulous year-round entertaining.

Within easy strolling distance to Balaclava?s lifestyle hub of trams, trains, local cuisine and funky cafés, it includes ducted heating and evaporative cooling throughout, a fully refitted bathroom with a shower recess and separate bathtub, plus a modern external laundry/storage room.
