43 Ballarat Street, Collingwood, Vic 3066

Behind a charming 1920s facade, here is an exceptionally spacious contemporary residence, rebuilt to the most exacting standards. Opening from the fretwork-trimmed front veranda is a high-ceilinged hallway, leading off to three large bedrooms -- all with built-in wardrobes, and two with elegant porcelain-tiled ensuites. A third bathroom incorporates a spa bath, dual shower, and concealed laundry. The living and dining area across the rear of the house is a breathtaking space - 68 sq.m. approx - designed for large scale entertaining. It is open to a state-of-the-art kitchen, fitted with generous storage, Caesar stone bench tops and premium appliances. The living area flows out on two sides through double-glazed cafe style doors to a delightful paved and landscaped courtyard garden. Features include ample off-street parking, blue gum flooring and pure wool carpets, ducted heating, individual split-system air conditioning, plus alarm and data cabling systems. This light-filled CBD-fringe property is close to Brunswick Street, Queens Parade, cafes, transport and Gold Street Primary School.
