4 Bennett Street, Fitzroy North, Vic 3068

This generously proportioned freestanding home, situated in an unrivalled location, offers excellent accommodation. Entry is through a well-planted cottage garden to a wide entrance hall, floored in Baltic pine. Originally a four bedroom home, it is currently configured to offer three large bedrooms: all have ornate ceiling roses, cornices, open fireplaces, picture rails and antique metal light fittings. A very spacious living room (with gas log fire) was created some years ago by eliminating an interconnecting wall to the 4th bedroom. This could be easily reinstated. On the other side of the hall is a classic 1950s bathroom, fully tiled, with a terrazzo floor, separate bath and shower, and modern fittings. Set across the rear of the house is a sunny kitchen, with ample storage and a Kleenmaid 6-burner double oven range; it is open to a long informal dining area with a wall of doors to a larger than usual laundry. Double glass doors open to a covered pergola and storage area in the landscaped low-maintenance courtyard garden. There is even a patch of grass!
