Blending leafy tranquillity with the verve Seddon is famous for, this Federation-era prize embraces both rich history and clever modernity, tastefully renovated to promise instant comfort in a position that’s among the inner west’s finest.

As endearing today as the day it was built, a double-fronted stance reveals interiors where classical and contemporary go hand-in-hand. Re-treated hardwood floors are met by timber wall panelling central to the home’s identity, with a welcoming hallway introducing three robe-lined bedrooms en route to a magnificent main section. Distinct while connected, living and dining zones come together to be a joy whether hosting friends or unwinding in peace, neighboured by an upscale kitchen with premium appliances for entertaining prowess, stone benchtops for durability and olive-tone cabinetry for a splash of colour and intrigue. A brilliantly broad barbecue deck enjoys complete cover to be as usable in June as in January, accessed directly via a side gate to ensure every gathering is effortless.

Without a thing to do but move right in, establish roots and share in the lifestyle that sees Seddon so adored, other highlights include a smart bathroom with a bathtub, oversized laundry easily converted into a second bathroom, backyard shed, evaporative cooling, split-system heating/cooling, extensive storage, insulation, natural light from dawn to dusk and ornate features keeping character at the fore.

Why you’ll love this location:

While ample street parking adds to the appeal, a car is simply not necessary. The local playground, Whitten Oval, the day-and-night buzz of famous Footscray and both Middle Footscray and Seddon Stations (two separate lines) sit just steps away, with Seddon Village at street’s end for world-class coffee and cuisine, popular boutiques and grocers, longstanding pubs and trendy wine bars.

St Augustine’s, St John’s and zoned Footscray Primary and High headline schooling options acclaimed by countless families, while Yarraville’s vibrant Village and iconic Sun Theatre, riverside parks and trails, the new Footscray Hospital, Victoria University, Highpoint shops, the West Gate Tunnel/Bridge and cyclists’ favourite Dixon Veloway all sit within moments.
