The Location
Footscray is a popular suburb of Melbourne just 7km from the CBD, 23 min drive or 20-odd min public transport commute.
Perfectly positioned, close to picturesque Footscray Park and the Maribyrnong River Trail, Victoria University Footscray Park & Nicholson campuses, Western Health precinct including Footscray Hospital, the route 82 tram, Footscray’s trendy bars, restaurants, and cafes, and Footscray Railway Station for ease of access into the city.
It is literally a hop, skip and jump from the New Footscray Hospital, that is currently undergoing a $1.5b upgrade and is on track to open in 2025.
The Property
This home has beautiful timber flooring flowing throughout zoned, open plan living, with distinct spaces across living and dining for an elevated everyday experience. Framed by large picture windows, opening outside to a sunny wraparound entertainers’ terrace, perfect for long summer barbecues.
Superbly appointed, the state-of-the-art kitchen showcases quality stainless steel appliances, including gas cooktop, under-bench oven, and dishwasher, complemented by a deep sink, and an abundance of storage throughout, encased in finger-recessed joinery. Completing the picture, the feature breakfast bar creates an informal eating area, or a perch to keep the chef company.
The oversized master suite features a walk-in robe and private ensuite, while bedroom two is fitted with a built-in robe to maximise storage capabilities. Both have plush carpet underfoot.
The family bathroom boasts a generously proportioned glass corner shower, floating vanity, and sleek toilet, with matte black tap and hardware throughout, striking an intricate balance between elegance and practicality.
Other features include a secure basement carpark and reverse-cycle split-system heating and cooling for year-round comfort.
If this property sounds like it could be the perfect started or addition to your portfolio, I’d love to discuss details.
As it’s completed and well priced, I don’t expect it to be on the market for long. Email me or call me to arrange a time to meet.
