83 Heidelberg Road, Clifton Hill, Vic 3068

This distinctive three or four bedroom free standing Victorian residence with garden outlooks from all rooms has been renovated in period style to offer large scale family living of exceptional warmth and character, close to Clifton Hill Station and shops, Yarra Parklands and Queens Parade. Set behind a beautifully planted cottage garden, 'Sirrah's' block fronted façade and chequerboard lace-trimmed verandah ensure instant street appeal. Entry is to a wide Baltic-floored hallway, opening on either side to three double bedrooms (one presently configured as a study), with marble fire-surrounds, deep cornice work and fitted cabinetry. Also opening from the hall are an ultra large timber-lined bathroom with clawfoot bath and separate shower, and a tiled powder room.

Across the centre of the house is an impressive dining room, set beside a glass-walled gallery leading past the central courtyard garden to the grand living room and second dining area. This light-filled space, with a central solid-fuel open fireplace, coved ceilings, stone floors and French doors to three sides, combines elegance with intimacy. The French Provincial-inspired kitchen, adjoining the dining room, is a showpiece, equipped with a dual- oven Rosieres range, tiled walls and benchtops, and a pantry.

With a verandah to one side, the deep (42.96m) paved courtyard garden to the rear opens through an arch to a spacious studio/fourth bedroom, and a garage with entry from a secluded right-of-way. This inviting property, appealing to the most discerning buyer, includes a concealed laundry, ducted heating, reverse-cycle air conditioning and ample storage.
