126 Curzon Street, NORTH MELBOURNE VIC 3051

This appealing terrace is one of a group of four 1880s cottages, with matching paintwork, cast iron lace and verandah railings. The former workers houses are unusual in that they have an upper-storey room at the back which is not visible from the street. Entry is to an arched hallway with polished Baltic flooring. To the right runs the living room, with open fireplace and a small ceiling rose. An adjoining double bedroom has been fitted with concertina-doored built in wardrobes. Down a step, the hall opens into a pleasant open-plan kitchen and dining area, with laundry facilities in one corner (these could easily be concealed to make a European-style laundry). The kitchen has been well fitted with a Smeg oven, raised timber cabinets, and a pull-out pantry. Windows from the dining area overlook the garden, and a half-glass door leads to a timber entertaining deck. This L-shaped landscaped outdoor area has an attractive timber workshop/storage room on one side. The recently renovated bathroom receives good natural light. Stairs lead up to the second bedroom, which looks down over the garden. The location of this well-presented property is excellent: Errol Street, the Victoria Market, and public transport are all within easy walking distance.
