An enchanting showcase of Victorian attractions with an enthralling slice of East Melbourne history, this proud 2 bedroom c1873 solid brick cottage is being offered for the first time in 45 years. In the notable row marked as ‘Elizabeth Terrace’ (59-63) which was named after the wife of a famed Bourke Street ironmonger and designed by architect G.D. Langridge, this historic Victorian retains its irresistible façade, captivating 3.7m approx. ceilings, high skirting boards, and Baltic pine floorboards with heartwarming effect. Welcomed by the traditional arched hallway, the home features 2 gorgeous front bedrooms (including the main with marble fireplace, the other with built-in robes), an engaging family living and dining area, tasteful kitchen with a Bosch dishwasher, a stylish subway-tiled bathroom, genuine laundry and double doors to a sun-splashed brick-paved alfresco courtyard with its versatile workshop and rear lane access.
