Designer style with incredible versatility

A stunning mixture of designer flair, vintage charm, and bountiful possibility, this 5 bedroom, 3 bathroom Brunswick East residence offers myriad options as family home with potential office or consulting space. Retaining details of its red-bricked Edwardian heritage yet thoughtfully updated with plentiful character, this is a brilliant property conveniently positioned in one of the inner north’s most desirable pockets.

Enter into the residence on quiet Ethel Street, and step into an ultra-modern kitchen that matches period details (pressed ceilings, exposed brick) to a fit-out that’s the stuff of home-chef dreams: deluxe Blanco oven and large gas cooktop, stainless steel Miele dishwasher, ample storage with chic black cupboards, spacious marble benchtops, and central island bench with breakfast bar. The kitchen flows into a light-filled living area with marble floors and stylish skylights, which then opens out through sliding glass doors to rear decking perfect for entertaining, and a North facing courtyard including beach styled outdoor shower. The transition from inside to outside is genuinely beautiful, operating at the peak of stylish modern living.

Downstairs finds 3 rooms with use as potential bedrooms or home offices, a secondary kitchenette, and bathroom with shower. Upstairs offers a second light-filled lounge or sitting room, and two spacious bedrooms with ensuite access. The master bedroom steps out onto a stately balcony overlooking Glenlyon Road with city glimpses. Further features of the property include inversion cooling, ducted heating, and off-street parking via automatic roller door on Ethel Street.

This eye catching property is situated in a prime Brunswick East location adjacent Lygon Street’s buzzing Brunswick strip, with its vibrant array of restaurants and cafés, and close to Nicholson Street and a nearby supermarket. It’s a short walk to the 96, 1, and 6 trams and other transport options. Stroll to serene Methven Park. Zoned to Brunswick South Primary School and Northcote High School.
