21 Heidelberg (Quiet End) Road, Clifton Hill, Vic 3068

This immaculately-presented period residence, set on the quiet exit from Heidelberg Road close to Clifton Hill station and village, Queens Parade cafes and shopping, offers period charm, a versatile floor plan, and light-filled living space. The tuck-pointed fretwork- trimmed faade and pretty front garden ensure immediate street appeal. Entrance from the verandah is to a Baltic-floored hallway with exceptionally high ceilings inset with a large skylight. Three double bedrooms, a family-size tiled bathroom and separate WC run to one side. An imaginatively designed new section with complementary period detail links the well-proportioned living and dining zones, separated by a stylish black-and-white kitchen with (stainless steel appliances) and full-sized laundry. The glass-walled living area flows to a deep paved courtyard, bordered by a parking area from Rose Street and a storage room with WC.

The piece de resistance of this charming house is a vast upper level studio, with truss and gable ceiling, windows with views over Clifton Hill village, split-system air conditioning and ample storage. Used by the current owner as a design studio, the space is readily convertible to a living room/library or fourth bedroom. Here is a city-fringe home with warmth and character, ideally suited for family living or work-from-home occupancy. Land size: 6.4m x 40m
