115 Murray Road, Preston VIC 3072

Successfully balancing the timeless quality, period character and architectural detail of a vintage era with the contemporary luxuries and practicalities required by the modern family lifestyle, this chic yet charming three-bedroom clinker brick residence delivers a peerless living experience in a premier lifestyle location.

An easy walk to popular foodie hotspots (including local favourite Stray Neighbour), you're never far from a gourmet meal or quality coffee. Factor in walking distance access to Plenty Road trams and bus services that transport you directly to Northland Shopping Centre, Preston Market, Preston train station and Preston's famed High Street strip, in addition to the close proximity of excellent schools and the Darebin Creek Trail, and it's clear why this location is in such high demand.

An enchanting portico entrance is in keeping with the home's classic persona, as are the ornately decorated high ceilings, original polished hardwood timber floorboards and elegant Colonial-style windows that filter abundant natural light into the single-level interior.

When it's cold outside, curl up in front of the open fireplace in the large living area, and when the sun is out and the breeze is fresh, open the French doors and step out onto the trendy open-air deck where you can entertain friends in style, enjoy breakfasts with the birds or sip cocktails at sunset with your loved one.

Timber walls, floors and benchtops add chic appeal to the captivating open-plan meals/kitchen area in the heart of the home, and with a 900mm stainless steel freestanding cooker, easy-to-clean stainless steel splashback, farmhouse sink and plenty of space for your pots and pans, it's fit for a chef.

A rear living area presents the kids with an ideal space to play their games without disturbing other members of the household, while a gorgeous renovated family bathroom with a clawfoot bath is a celebration of timeless style and contemporary finesse.

All three bedrooms are of generous proportions, while a separate studio inspires creativity and makes working from home a realistic option.

Climate-controlled with ducted heating and evaporative cooling and featuring a remote tandem carport accessed via Inverloch Street, an enclosed front garden and a desirable north-facing orientation on a low-maintenance 351sqm (approx.) block, there's no better place to begin a new chapter of family memories.
