854 Lygon Street, Carlton North

Directly opposite all the green spaces of Hardy Reserve on iconic Lygon Street, this exceptionally sound and immaculately presented Edwardian is highlighted by an outstanding array of beautifully preserved period flourishes.

The façade is blessed with decorative rooftiles and mouldings, wooden fretwork and wrought-iron lacework. Step inside and find soaring ceiling heights, grand fireplaces with majestic mantels, decorative cornices and ceiling roses, high skirtings, hardwood floors, stained glass and lead lighting.

A wide entry hall precedes two generous bedrooms, an updated central bathroom and laundry, and leads to an expansive living/dining area featuring a magnificent central fireplace and effective gas heating. A smartly equipped kitchen moves through to a versatile additional space (with potential for use as home office, retreat or second living area) that opens to a private courtyard bathed in brilliant northern sun with convenient rear access via Macpherson Street.

The perfect lifestyle position finds Rathdowne Village, Princes Park and zoned Princes Hill Primary and Secondary schools all just steps away. Trams stop right near your front door and it’s an easy walk to Lygon Street eateries and retail, Royal Park, Edinburgh Gardens, Fitzroy North Village, Brunswick Street, Melbourne University and countless more area highlights.
