3/16 Rigby Avenue, Carnegie, Vic 3163

Lovely and light behind a beautiful rose garden, this 2 bedroom 1950s cream brick villa is immaculately preserved like it was built yesterday. Warm with polished boards, this spacious classic features a north facing living room, 2 large bedrooms (built in robes), 'pretty in pink' original bathroom with separate toilet, a pristine classic kitchen/meals area with built in buffet area and electric cooking, and a separate laundry leading to a wrap around courtyard with vegetable patches. The only tell tell signs that this timeless charmer is in the 21st century is that it's been appointed with modern comforts including a new gas space heater, evaporative cooling, security doors, external awnings and a lock up garage. A fantastic first home, investment or downsizer in this delightful group of 8 in this peaceful leafy street, a hop, skip and a jump to Packer Park, the trendy Left Field cafe, the Chadstone bus and a kindergarten, while within easy reach of eclectic Koornang Road shops, cafes and restaurants, the Melbourne University tram, Carnegie Swim Centre, North Road restaurants and a choice of stations on both the Frankston and Pakenham lines. Quietly convenient.
