Overview

This distinctive two-storey residence located at 18 Ida Street is a rare blend of Art Deco charm and versatile family functionality, cherished by the same family for over five decades. A thoughtful 1977 renovation expanded the home’s layout while preserving its character, introducing decorative ceilings and generous living spaces. The lounge seamlessly connects to the dining area through sliding doors, encouraging a natural flow throughout the home.

At its heart is a kitchen centered around a uniquely shaped round bench, framed by vintage tiles and equipped with practical features such as a gas cooktop and a wall oven/grill, creating a warm, inviting space for both casual and family meals. Complementing the interior, the raised entertaining area outside is enhanced by a wood-fired oven, ideal for social gatherings, while additional spaces such as the rear garage/workshop and a separate bungalow or hobby room add valuable flexibility for various household or leisure uses.

The property offers five bedrooms designed to accommodate families with varied needs; three are situated on the ground floor with built-in robes, including the main bedroom, while the two upstairs bedrooms benefit from direct access to a spacious north-facing balcony, enhancing the home's light and outdoor connection. An ensuite attached to one upstairs bedroom adds privacy and convenience.
A central bathroom with a skylight brings natural illumination to this practical space, which includes both shower and bath options. Additional functional features include a separate laundry, a standalone toilet, and under-stair storage, ensuring organization and ease of living.
The home is equipped with comfort systems such as Brivis evaporative cooling and ducted heating, along with remote-controlled external shutters, balancing modern convenience with classic style.

Situated moments from the scenic Merri Creek bike trails, public transport via Sydney Road tram routes, and a variety of local shops, this property offers a lifestyle that combines heritage charm with everyday accessibility. It appeals to families seeking a home that is character-rich, versatile, and well-located within a vibrant community.
