8 St Neots Avenue, Northcote VIC 3070

Secluded and elevated on an expansive allotment capturing mountain views, this classic mid-century residence presents an unsurpassed opening in a quiet and friendly cul-de-sac high on Ruckers Hill. A relaxed ambience, vast rear garden and rare potential near High Street make this substantial 684 sq. metre property (approx.) a genuine once in a generation opportunity to create a magnificent family lifestyle setting. Tucked peacefully away behind all the action, little-known St Neots Avenue has a wonderful village feel and being so tightly held means it's the ideal place for a family to enjoy the established community-focused surroundings in the coveted Northcote High School zone. A leafy garden profile with side driveway off-street parking reveals the timeless façade of this cream brick home (c1950) offering a character-filled 3 bedroom interior complemented by a versatile fourth bedroom retreat or studio/office. Picking up spectacular north/east views to the ranges, large living and dining rooms separated by etched glass doors lead on polished hardwood floorboards to a central kitchen, a family bathroom, separate toilet and a secluded rear sunroom. A laundry and a workshop adjoin an alfresco patio then what lies next, that must be seen to be believed, is an expansive rear garden bursting with inspiration and possibilities. Renovate this charming home, extend into the enormous backyard (STCA) and realize the dream of luxury family living amidst beautifully landscaped gardens backdropped by breathtaking panoramic views. This potential-packed home on 684 sq. metres (approx.) is enviably positioned less 200-metres to High Street with its vibrant strip of cafes, restaurants, wine bars, shops and trams, while also close to Northcote Primary School, Northcote Plaza shopping centre, train station, parklands and Merri Creek walking trails.
