2/31 Elphin Grove, Hawthorn VIC 3122

If you're a foodie, you're going to love being a 10minute walk to all the wonderful eateries on Glenferrie Rd. If you're a student, you can sneak a sleep in when you're just a 5min walk to Swinburne University. And if you simply love all the parks, culture and transport connections of the leafy inner east, this towering solid brick town house welcomes you to the heart of Hawthorn's finest attractions. Unit 2 is set well back from the road, with its own car space alongside the front entrance, and access to visitor parking on the other side.

Beyond its striking solid brick construction, which promises a perfectly cool summer, the residence appeals with a flexible floor plan set over two levels – dedicating its living space alongside the kitchen and meals area, with potential to zone the expansive room as a master bedroom retreat.

A lovely bay window and back verandah add character and lifestyle to the design – the blank canvas al fresco space already fenced and ready for your outdoor living vision.

The elegant town house adds a bright kitchen with upright cooker, 2 toilets (1 on each floor), king-sized bedrooms and a family bathroom with both a shower and bath.

Low maintenance freedom doesn't get much better than this, with a property that's ripe for a refresh from keen renovators, to set you up with a superbly central base close to restaurants, pubs, designer shops, the Lido Cinema and Hawthorn Aquatic Centre, right on the doorstep of bus, train and tram connections from this first-class suburb.
