48 Stokes Street, Preston VIC 3072

An excellent opportunity to secure a home in a superb location, with 50's charm, updated to provide open plan family living. Walking distance to Bell train station, trams, Preston Market, schools and all that is offered on High St and Plenty Road. Less than 10km from the city, making for a quick commute or an enjoyable cycle.

This well presented and appealing three-bedroom home is of solid brick, with original features of the late art deco period: high ceilings, stepped cornices, picture rails and hardwood floors. The north facing kitchen has been completely renovated and is well appointed with a dishwasher, an under-bench built-in fridge and ample storage. The inviting lounge boasts three-panel windows below which are bespoke, built in book shelves. All year comfort is assured with fully ducted ActronAir, reverse cycle heating and cooling, and an instantaneous Bosch hot water system.

The back yard has been transformed into an outdoor sanctuary with trees, greenery, and a large deck for entertaining, framed by a raised vegetable garden that will keep you supplied with herbs and salads. The property also includes a sizeable fully lined workshop/shed, and off-street parking.

Astute buyers will also recognise the potential of the GRZ2 planning zone, that allows plenty of scope for changes (STCA).
