5 Park Street, Richmond, Vic 3121

One of Richmond's most appealing cul-de-sac addresses, this quiet, friendly street concludes with direct access to the green expanses of Burnley Park, one of the inner city's serene retreats, adjacent to the Yarra River bike and walking trails, moments from Bridge Road shops, cafes and restaurants and close to city tram and Burnley Station. Downstairs dimensions are defined by a classical sitting room or study and a separate dining room, each enhanced by polished floors and period fire places beneath traditional high ceilings. To the rear, northern light flows across a decked courtyard to fill a modern living space accompanied by an open plan kitchen. The allure is equally apparent upstairs where a huge main bedroom opening to a charming balcony is complemented by two further bedrooms that surround a modern central bathroom. Ducted air conditioning, hydronic heating and excellent storage put fine finishing touches to a home of immediate - and enduring - appeal by the park.
