470 Brunswick Street, Fitzroy North, Vic 3068

A period profile that remains as attractive in the current era as it has been for over a century precedes this charming Victorian's classical arched hall and two double bedrooms defined by generous proportions beneath original high ceilings. Northern light from an effective courtyard retreat complements a central living and dining area that flows to a kitchen zone with stone benches, stainless steel appliances and a step in pantry illustrate the distinctive style of a designer update. To the rear, a bright bathroom confirms the present day appeal of a home that concludes with a low-maintenance courtyard with a convenient right-of-way. Plans and permits for an upstairs extension and fabulous roof-top entertaining suggest scope for taking this inner-city residence to a sensational new level of luxury when so desired. Edinburgh Gardens, St Georges Road's cafe culture and tram routes to the CBD ensure lifestyle success accompanies today's - and tomorrow's - dimensions.
