20 Tongue Street, Yarraville VIC 3013

With the utmost of respect for its original Federation and Art Nouveau styling, this circa 1900 constructed, 4 bedroom residence has been architecturally renovated and extended to exceed expectations with a remarkable sense of proportion and exquisite indoor-outdoor connection. Framing garden vistas in all directions and well-considered zones for al fresco living and entertaining, the sense of sanctuary here is utterly surreal.

· A superb front garden enhances the street appeal of the home's traditional façade, inside which a bay window, polished timber floors and stain glass windows are complemented by beautiful fretwork and gas-converted fireplaces for a rich, period experience.

· Organised around a 3 metre, stone-topped breakfast bar that sits under eye-catching heritage-style pendant lighting, the kitchen / meals is appointed with a suite of Miele, SMEG and Ilve appliances as it opens to a central courtyard, all overlooking a broad dining and living area. Meanwhile, a library-like formal lounge with a wall of built-in bookcases is warmly ambient.

· Seamlessly, the open-plan flows to a garden-surrounded and paved rear courtyard.

· Upstairs, the master bedroom offers sublime parental indulgence with its own ensuite and walk-in robes, whilst the 4th bedroom can equally be utilized as the most divine - and enormous - home office with its own courtyard access.

· Hydronically heated and with split system air conditioning, the home's

extraordinary attention-to-detail includes solar power, an abundance of storage options and retractable fly screens as well as provision for a car to be parked off street.

· Walk easily to the irresistible village vibes of both Seddon and Yarraville where the selection of cafes, dining, bars and shopping is sure to tantalise, plus you can access city-bound trains from Seddon, Yarraville and also Middle Footscray.
