Set in one of Kensington’s most quietly connected pockets, this freestanding Victorian terrace brings together period charm, considered modern updates and an unusually generous sense of space.

Behind its classic single fronted facade, the home retains the character of its 1890s origins, with high decorative ceilings, ceiling roses, hardwood floors and original fireplaces providing warmth and architectural detail. These heritage elements are balanced by a calm, design-forward palette, with Scandinavian-inspired finishes and thoughtful upgrades creating a home that feels both refined and highly liveable.

The ground floor flows through to a light-filled open-plan living, dining and kitchen zone, ideal for relaxed everyday living and easy entertaining. The kitchen is well appointed with quality appliances, including gas cooking, electric oven and dishwasher, while the adjoining meals and family area opens naturally to the rear garden.

A highlight is the spacious backyard, framed by established greenery and designed for low-maintenance enjoyment. With pedestrian rear right-of-way access, rainwater storage and a generous outdoor setting, it offers rare flexibility for a city-fringe home. The property is particularly well suited to those wanting usable outdoor space without the burden of extensive garden upkeep.

Accommodation includes two robed bedrooms, a bright dual-access bathroom with corner spa, internal laundry and excellent storage. A versatile mezzanine level adds further appeal, offering an ideal home office, reading space or retreat, with an adjoining upstairs living area capturing city outlooks.

Additional features include upgraded ducted heating/cooling, split-system comfort, rainwater tank/bladder infrastructure, established trees at both ends of the home, dual access and a practical layout suited to modern living.

The home is tucked between Macaulay Road, Newmarket/ Flemington’s shopping precinct, the home enjoys a rare balance of village atmosphere and urban convenience.
