Behind its timeless façade, this family-friendly home offers a tranquil base just moments from Merri Creek, dining spots, the train station and nature trails. Back home, the light-filled living area invites adults to unwind while little ones enjoy the backyard with its lawn, climbing slide and outdoor play table. Prepare meals in the full kitchen or gather outdoors for BBQ lunches beneath the open sky.
The light-filled living area forms the heart of the home, creating a welcoming space to unwind and connect. Sink into the plush sofa with a book, enjoy leafy views through expansive glazing, or gather around the large dining table for meals and conversation. The well-appointed kitchen features a central island and quality appliances for easy cooking, while air-conditioning in the dining space keeps the home comfortable throughout.

Outside, the private backyard offers another inviting place to spend time together, with an alfresco dining setting, a gas BBQ, and an open lawn. Families travelling with children will love the climbing slide and outdoor play table, giving little ones their own space to play while everyone enjoys the fresh air.

The primary bedroom offers a peaceful retreat with a queen bed and heritage styling, while the second bedroom features two king single beds alongside books and toys for younger guests. The third bedroom is furnished with a queen sofa bed. The bathroom includes a bathtub, a separate shower and complimentary toiletries. A laundry with a washing machine and drying rack adds convenience for longer stays.

While there is no on-site parking, free street parking is available nearby.

Please note: The fireplaces are decorative only and not functional. As the home is located beside a train line, some train noise may be heard. However, highly efficient secondary glazing helps keep the interior quiet, cool, and comfortable.
During your stay, you and your group will have the entire house to yourselves. Please make yourselves at home!

Positioned in one of Northcote's most walkable pockets, the home is just a short stroll from vibrant High Street and Westgarth Village. Running through the heart of the village, High Street was named the "Coolest Street in the World" by Time Out in 2024, celebrated for its vibrant mix of independent businesses, diverse dining, thriving arts scene and welcoming community spirit.

Start the day with coffee at Todo Good Coffee before exploring local favourites including Hanami Izakaya, Ruckers Hill, Primo, Little Flock, Elmo's and Khaomai. Unwind with a drink at Donny's, Low Key or Merri Creek Tavern, then catch a film at the iconic Westgarth Cinema, a beloved cultural landmark.
