Overview

This exquisitely rebuilt and substantially renovated period home in West Footscray offers an exceptional living experience that merges classic elegance with modern convenience. Perfectly crafted for family living, it provides a seamless blend of generous space, superior finishes, and practical design tailored to everyday comfort and entertaining.

The residence features four spacious bedrooms inclusive of a luxurious main suite complete with a large walk-in robe and a well-appointed ensuite bathroom combining a bath, shower, and a double vanity. The additional three bedrooms provide flexibility and comfort, with two fitted with built-in robes.

Central to the home's appeal is the dramatic open-plan living, kitchen, and dining area highlighted by a soaring 5.6-meter cathedral ceiling and a distinctive stained-glass window, infusing the space with natural light and architectural interest. The kitchen boasts stone benchtops, a pendant-lit island with breakfast bar, European appliances, and an induction cooktop – ideal for culinary enthusiasts and social gatherings alike.

A covered alfresco deck and carefully landscaped, low-maintenance backyard offer an inviting outdoor extension for relaxation or celebrations, enhanced by raised garden beds and a rainwater tank supporting sustainable living. Additional functional zones include a sunlit home office or second living space accented by a charming bay window, and a cleverly integrated Euro laundry that balances style with utility.

Quality fittings like engineered timber flooring, split system heating and cooling, double-glazed uPVC windows, and a 7kW solar panel system contribute to an energy-efficient and comfortable environment. Security is reinforced through an NVR camera system, while parking is ample with a gated driveway and a 15-meter secure carport.

Located within walking distance to vibrant local amenities such as Barkly Village, multiple cafes, shopping centers, and excellent public transport links, the property caters well to families, professionals, and anyone seeking a high-quality, inner-suburban lifestyle with the convenience of urban proximity.
