278 Station Street, Carlton North, Vic 3054

Quite possibly Carlton North's most original Victorian, this tempting terrace represents a renovation project unique in its capacity to deliver spectacular rewards. A wide streetscape renowned for its period integrity provides an appealing broader context for a home that has endured in an entirely un-renovated state for generation after generation. Now, clearly, the time has arrived for a full scale, front to back, top to bottom application of contemporary ideas. Three double bedrooms, one with an open fire-place, retain the traditional proportions of their era and lead to a central living/dining area that receives northern natural light. A separate kitchen and a courtyard bathroom, with the toilet still in its original back corner of the block, reflect exactly how completely untouched this property is. Rear right-of-way concludes a picture of pure potential, close to Nicholson Street shops and trams.
