Classic elegance with a contemporary twist
Deadline Sale (unless sold prior) closing 4pm Tues 10 Nov.
Nestled on sought-after Collingwood Street, this beautifully restored 1910 character home is the one you've been waiting for. Framed by a charming picket fence and a clematis-draped frontage, it offers timeless appeal just a pleasant stroll from the city centre.
While the home's heritage character is immediately captivating, extensive renovations by the current owners have introduced a stylish contemporary edge. A stunning new kitchen with a striking feature splashback, beautifully tiled bathroom and separate toilet blend modern sophistication with the home's original charm. At the heart of the home, a dual-sided gas fireplace creates a warm and inviting atmosphere, allowing you to enjoy the flickering flames from both the living and dining areas - perfect for cosy evenings and effortless entertaining.
With two bedrooms and a thoughtfully designed extension, the home offers a separate wing featuring an additional room used as the primary bedroom and adjoining study, both with direct access to the garden. The formal front lounge opens through French doors to a covered patio, while the charming veranda and generous front deck provide the perfect spots to relax and soak up the afternoon sun.
The cosy rear living room opens to a sunny patio surrounded by greenery, seasonal colour and birdsong. An outdoor entertaining area beneath a shade sail provides the perfect setting for summer gatherings or quiet afternoons spent relaxing in the garden. Designed to delight throughout the seasons, the established gardens are a true feature of the property, with winding paths, colourful plantings and two distinctive Chinese warrior statues standing sentinel along the pathway to the front door.
From the gracious front rooms, bay window and high ceilings to the warmth and personality that now fills every corner, this home offers a rare combination of timeless character and modern comfort.
Set on an easy-care 506sqm section, the property will appeal to professional couples, singles, small families or those looking to downsize without compromising on character or lifestyle. For those who prefer to leave the car at home, the ability to walk into town for coffee, dinner or evening drinks is a significant advantage.
The upper end of Collingwood Street is highly sought-after, and number 201 enjoys a premium elevated position above the road. Beautifully sheltered and exceptionally private, the property borders the grounds of St Joseph's School to the north and east, creating a peaceful setting with lovely outlooks and abundant sunshine.
Practical features include a single garage and a garden shed tucked away at the rear.
Whatever your plans, the true allure of this property lies in its exceptional location. Enjoy easy walks to town via Collingwood Street or the riverside pathways, while Fairfield Park, Melrose House, the Grampians walking tracks and mountain bike trails are all close at hand.
This is a rare opportunity to secure a character-filled sanctuary where classic elegance and modern living come together beautifully.
Private viewings are available or see you at the Open Home.
