141 Union Street, Brunswick, Vic 3056

Large airy rooms, a renovation in tasteful period style, and picturesque former stables suitable for separate occupancy, give this light-filled home exceptional appeal. Set on a vast (700 sq.m approx) landscaped corner block, the property is walking distance to Jewell Station, Union Square Shopping Precinct, and Royal Park. Entry from the verandah is to an imposing lobby, opening to handsomely-proportioned formal sitting and dining rooms, both with timber-mantelled open fireplaces and deep leadlight windows overlooking the manicured garden. Three double bedrooms and a large terrazzo-floored bathroom with restored period fittings run off a fretwork-trimmed hallway. The kitchen, fitted with extensive timber cabinetry and granite benchtops, is open to a huge informal living area which flows through a wall of timber-framed glass to the expansive courtyard and garden. Set to one side are a laundry/utility room and an under stairs storage room. To the front of the upper level is the grand master bedroom/retreat, with
dressing room and a stylish ensuite bathroom. Double doors link the bedroom to a third living area, with gabled ceiling and garden views; to the rear is a fitted home office or fifth bedroom. Features of this exceptional property include exquisite leadlighting and plaster detail, panelled timberwork, polished hardwood floors, ducted cooling and an alarm system. The converted stable, entered from Millward St, provides parking for several cars and a mezzanine. Agent - hockingstuart.
