216 Ascot Vale Road, Ascot Vale, Vic 3032

Refreshingly quiet, comfortable from the outset, and true to heritage dating back more than 125 years, this modern take on a timeless terrace offers elegant, easy access to the Ascot Vale lifestyle.

As endearing as ever with its solid brick, bluestone, and wrought-iron details, the home makes the most of a deep parcel, maximising space across a single level shaped cleverly around day-to-day life. With the advantage of a rear pedestrian laneway (via Middle Street), a low-maintenance back garden and oversized alfresco deck are perfect for a Sunday barbecue, evening drink, or morning coffee watching the sunrise. Sliding doors merge inside and out for effortless entertaining, with living and dining areas adjoining a kitchen boasting premium appliances. Baltic pine floors, architraves, towering ceilings, and a hallway keep character centre-stage in an impressive front domain, with main and guest bedrooms served by ample storage, ceiling fans, plantation shutters, and a smart bathroom with dual basins, a bath/shower, and integrated laundry.

Reverse-cycle heating/cooling and central heating, a backyard shed, and easy street parking add to the appeal, while from its prestige position, the abode captures countless conveniences. Trains (170m away*) reach the city in four stops, Ascot Vale Primary and Ascot Kindergarten are within seconds, and a short stroll reveals the local farmers market, 57 and 59 Trams, and the cuisine, shopping, and nightlife of Puckle Street, Union Road, and Mt Alexander Road.
