32 Keele Street, Collingwood, Vic 3066

This elegant freestanding residence, designed by Helix Architects for maximum light and privacy, fits unobtrusively into a streetscape of period homes and warehouses close to neighborhood cafes and Smith Street. Meticulous craftsmanship is evident in every detail of this light-filled property, which includes on its lower level two spacious bedrooms (main with ensuite) from a wide hallway, stylish main bathroom/laundry, generous custom storage, courtyard and internal entry remote-access garage with workshop/bicycle storage. Upstairs, stunning living and dining zones with richly polished timber floors and windows to all sides are separated by a designer kitchen (Bosch appliances, premium cabinetry and breakfast bar). A study/3rd BR opens from the living room. Flowing from the dining area is a north-facing al fresco entertaining area with vertical garden. Features of this tranquil city-fringe property include reverse-cycle air conditioning, ceiling fans, ducted vacuum and quality appointments.
