Overview

449 Albert Street, Brunswick

Behind its charming period façade, this thoughtfully renovated four-bedroom home combines heritage character with a significant architectural renewal tailored for contemporary family living. The property features high ceilings, original hallway arches, cornices, and plaster details that reflect its historical roots, while the rebuilt rear section offers a serene, light-filled space with strong connections to the garden areas.

The central living, dining, and kitchen area is spacious, open, and highly functional, enhanced by skylights, an island bench, stone surfaces, and a layout that promotes easy everyday living and entertaining. Timber floorboards extend throughout the home, and the design maximizes natural light and passive cooling, resulting in bright, comfortable interiors year-round.

The accommodation is well zoned to support family flexibility, with two bedrooms located in the original part of the home and a third, privately positioned main bedroom at the rear, complete with a built-in robe and ensuite. Built-in robes are included where applicable, and the floorplan balances connection and separation, accommodating growing families, guests, or work-from-home needs. The two bathrooms feature clean, contemporary finishes, including a bathtub, shower niches, and full-height tiling. Additional amenities include a separate laundry, hydronic heating, supplementary wall heaters, awning windows, a water tank, and rear laneway access.

Outside, the landscaped gardens, low-maintenance backyard, and inviting side garden path contribute to the home's privacy and warmth. The location is ideal for family buyers, with nearby parks and dog-friendly open spaces, local schools, tram connections, shopping, and cafés. Gilpin Park’s dog facilities are conveniently located on Albert Street, while Brunswick North West Primary School, Brunswick Secondary College, Union Square shopping center, and tram routes are all within easy reach, providing everyday convenience.

A portion of the fee from every property transaction is donated to support people experiencing homelessness, family violence, and social isolation through a dedicated foundation.
