39 Crisp Avenue, Brunswick, Vic 3056

What a welcome is offered by this substantial Federation residence (circa 1906), in a wide street with no through traffic, close to Sydney Road and Lygon Street. On a large (640m2) north-facing block, the house offers comfortable living in its present condition, with exciting potential for further improvement without compromising the garden space. Entry from the wide fretwork-trimmed verandah is to an entrance lobby and a return hallway. The floorplan, with eight light-filled principal rooms, is extremely versatile - one of several possible configurations is four bedrooms plus study and front sitting room, although other layouts are possible. The central hallway leads to a well-proportioned living and dining area with windows to either end. This is open to the kitchen - timber-finished in farmhouse style, it is the focal point of the house. Large windows look out over the garden, which has one of Brunswick's largest fig trees. To one side are a bathroom with separate bath and shower, a laundry and WC.

Off street parking is provided at the front of the house, which features eclectic detail - leadlighting, plaster ornament, polished timber floors - and gas heating. Here is a rare opportunity to acquire an impressive family home in a tranquil position close to all the amenities of this ever-popular area.
