25 Helen Street, Northcote VIC 3070

Here is the ultimate design for extended family living. Just around the corner from High St, this welcoming free-standing period home, owned by the same family for 36 years, is separated by a tranquil well-planted garden from a striking modern studio/retreat, designed by Peter Jensen, formerly of Gregory Burgess Architects. The Victorian house, with open fireplaces and other period detail, incorporates 3BRs, expansive living and dining open to country-style kitchen, charming sitting room and large bathroom/laundry. Filled with natural light, the retreat, with private ROW entrance, is distinguished by free-flowing spaces, including a voluminous open plan area adjoining to the garden, large mezzanine level, neat kitchenette, bath and roof terrace with treetop views. This exceptional property is a study in authentic Northcote style.
