11 Larne Grove, Preston VIC 3072

Rich in character and opportunity, this timeless Californian classic presents the chance of a lifetime to make your mark on the south side of Bell Street.

An easy walk to the green expanses of Adams Reserve, High Street shops and cafes, South Preston Shopping Centre, buses and the No.86 tram for a quick 10 kilometre commute into the CBD, living on the Thornbury fringe evidently brings with it a whole lot of convenience. And becoming the proud owner of this period charmer also presents the prospect of future rewards given the scope to enhance the interior with contemporary touches or start afresh with a brand new family home on the 533sqm (approx.) block in a five-star lifestyle location (STCA).

Generating instant appeal with its classic faade and charming front porch where you can watch the world pass by, the positive impressions continue when you turn the key, set foot on the warm timber floorboards and marvel at the captivating interior featuring soaring high ceilings (with decorative plasterwork and classically-designed cornices), leadlight windows, two excellent bathrooms, two separate living areas and a generous collection of four spacious bedrooms.

Curl up in front of the open fireplace in the central lounge during those cold winter days, and during times of celebration, create a gourmet feast in the large updated kitchen (with stone benchtops and a 600mm stainless steel cooker) that overlooks the radiant open-plan living area and dine on the alfresco deck whilst soaking up the tranquillity of the leafy backyard.

Featuring air conditioning and ducted heating, this alluring residence also boasts generous off-street parking and a rear storage shed.
