192 Wood Street, Preston VIC 3072

Step into another world with this rare Victorian brick cottage, incorporating graceful elegance with modern magnificence to ensure occupants live majestically in a bygone era yet with all the spoils and comforts the 21st century provides.

It should also be noted that you're not just buying an enchanting home full of warmth and charm you're purchasing a rare piece of Darebin real estate history.

Built in 1893, few homes fulfil the classic credentials as much as this historically significant single-level residence. Magnificent high ceilings decorated with ornate roses combine with polished timber floorboards underfoot to produce an everlasting warmth, while literal warmth is delivered through the two fireplaces that stand proud in the separate dining room, main bedroom and gas heater in the light filled main lounge.

A modern kitchen has been thoughtfully renovated to complement the home's history, with a clear glass splashback set against original brickwork providing a glimpse into its period soul. Finished with stone benchtops and stainless steel appliances, it's a sight to behold.

All four bedrooms are of generous proportions and serviced by a renovated family bathroom. The fourth bedroom has the capability of converting into a versatile retreat that extends onto the paved outdoor entertaining area and enclosed grassed rear yard.

This exceptional residence also features generous off-street parking and attic storage with pull-down ladder.

Located within seamless access of Northland Shopping Centre, the 86 tram, local parkland, cafes and schools.
