788 Drummond Street, Carlton North, Vic 3054

Overlooking the wide Drummond Street plantation, this classic Victorian terrace has been redesigned in contemporary style to offer low-maintenance living, just around the corner from Rathdowne Village cafes, and close to Princes Park and Melbourne University. Elevated from the street, the lace-trimmed faade opens to a wide arched hallway, from which run two large bedrooms, one with built-in wardrobes and a marble-mantelled open fire place. Reconfiguration of the original floor plan allows for a good-sized living room with open fire place, a separate dining room overlooking the private pebbled courtyard to the rear, a smart galley style kitchen (Nbel and Blanco appliances), a tiled bathroom/laundry and a sunny study/3rd bedroom opening to a side deck. Features of this immaculately presented property include well-preserved plaster detail, skylights and split-system air conditioning.
