Generally Victoria Park is known as a character suburb full of old weatherboard and brick residences.

How about this circa 1930′s brick and tile front home on a spacious 492sqm survey strata block set in one of the most attractive streets in the suburb.

At the front of the home there is a wide porch ideal for a restful beer, wine or coffee.

As you enter there are the usual very high ceilings, ornate arches, gleaming wooden floorboards and an extra wide hallway.

There are 2 distinct living areas. The formal lounge with fireplace at the front and off the kitchen at the rear another living area currently used as a dining area.

The kitchen and bathroom are relatively modern. The bathroom has a separate shower and bath. The kitchen has a gas stove top for cooking, a dishwasher and plenty of storage.

There are 3 bedrooms, 2 of which are huge doubles (the main with wall to wall built in robes). The 3rd bedroom is a large single/small double size.

Generally character homes have very little storage areas. This problem has been overcome here with a huge attic being built in the roof. Access by a pull down ladder.

Off the dining area are French wooden doors leading to a private entertaining area complete with large pergola and decent size garden. Plenty of room here for home entertaining.

For home creature comforts there is the evaporative air conditioning, ideal in those summer months. For year round protection there are ornate bars and security blinds on the windows.

This really is a wonderful home for character lovers, an ideal location for city workers and a 10 minute stroll for those who may fancy a coffee or a bite to eat at one of the many restaurants on Albany Highway.
