21 Hawsleigh Avenue, Balaclava

In a tightly-held and highly sought-after cul-de-sac right on the cusp of Balaclava’s vibrant dining & retail strip, this charming brick Edwardian provides immediate comfort & space, along with tantalizing scope and the solid foundations for further future enhancements if desired (STCA).

Instantly captivating thanks to its evocative bay-windowed façade, the home opens to interiors that are crowned by high ceilings and accented by period features such as intricate fretwork, Baltic pine floors, ornate fireplaces and original leadlight.

Upon entry, a long hallway leads past the three bedrooms (two with built-in robes) to the central lounge, which is centred around a feature fireplace. The contemporary kitchen has room for relaxed meals & a table, and is equipped with stainless steel appliances, while the light-filled bathroom has a shower/bath with decadent rain head.

A full laundry and separate WC are also included, and the home boasts both ducted heating and evaporative cooling along with a secure and generous backyard with storage shed.

Move in and enjoy as is or consider a cutting-edge renovation/extension on the approx. 286sqm to suit your family’s requirements (subject to council approval).

A short stroll along Carlisle Street will have you at the station, a wonderful choice of cafes & restaurants and all daily shopping needs. The home is also close to bus stops, parks and schools including Caulfield Grammar School, Mount Scopus Memorial College, St Kilda Primary School and Yeshivah & Beth Rivkah Colleges.

We donate a portion of our fee from every property transaction to the Woodards Foundation to support people experiencing homelessness, family violence and social isolation.
