79 Livingstone Street, Ivanhoe VIC 3079

SOLD By Miles Real Estate.
To describe the private north-facing rear garden of this impeccable family residence as huge is an understatement because not only is it absolutely massive, it's like a sea of outstanding possibilities on a 909m2 allotment (approx). First time offered in over 60-years, this English-style clinker brick home showcases a fastidiously-maintained interior of mint condition Art Deco character previously extended for superb three bedroom and study family living. Solar panels, reverse cycle heating/cooling to main living and bedrooms, gas fire places, and alarm system create an entirely comfortable, current-day setting that is beautifully enhanced by stunning ceiling decoration, exquisite leadlight glazing, tuckpointed brick fireplaces and polished timber accents. The layout is suitably functional flowing from a paneled hallway to refined sitting and dining rooms, family living/meals area and a solid granite and timber kitchen with Smeg/ASKO stainless-steel appliances. All three bedrooms are of generous proportions while there is a sunny study, central bathroom (separate bathtub and shower) and a large laundry with a WC. And then, there's the backyard. Currently interspersed with Aegean blue outbuildings, covered alfresco area, fruit trees and endless lawn, let the imagination run wild as this vast, completely secluded and sun-filled space presents extraordinary future potential. Altogether ideal for now, a family-focused renovation/extension when ready or a substantial redevelopment (STCA), this expansive property with garaging and raintanks is a rare opportunity in a prime position near the Ivanhoe restaurant and retail precinct, parklands and trails, train station, Ivanhoe girls' and boys' grammars, primary school and the Austin Hospital.
