84 Macpherson Street, Footscray, Vic 3011

The romance of period lines is instantly irresistible, setting a tone for this unforgettable home's fabulous family spaces and a garden backdrop featuring sunny depth, inspired landscaping and a light-filled, flexible studio. A charming verandah and an entrance hall that retains its original fretwork issue a warmly welcoming introduction to three double bedrooms that surround a substantial bathroom and a central living room accompanied by library shelves and a period fire-place. The bright modern mood of generous living/dining areas and a well designed kitchen is matched by the outdoor entertaining of a substantial pergola before the garden delivers a memorable mixture of natives, edibles and exotics and the north-facing studio's beautiful deck, versatile proportions, ensuite and adjacent work-shop/storage. Few homes offer such undeniable desirability, such a positive aura, in such a convenient setting close to Footscray Primary School, shopping, transport options and Barkly Street.
