Sold 09/04/2018 $2,350,000
Double fronted Victorian ‘Jasmin Cottage’ (circa 1880) offers spacious family accommodation across an uncharacteristically large blue-chip Richmond Hill allotment with dual street frontage.
Four bedrooms bathed in light within a lush extensive garden setting, just a few paces from the MCG and Melbourne Sports Precinct. All forms of public transportation, dining, shopping, health services, schools and parklands are just moments away.
A secure and rustic bluestone Mews entry, featuring four brick paved car spaces, opens into a large mature garden which leads into a substantial, fully renovated home where large bright rooms set on bluestone foundations are filled with the romance of cast-iron fireplaces, decorative cornices, and 12-foot ceilings tower above gleaming original timber floors that have over 130 years of tales to tell.
A flexible, functional floorplan caters to modern day living, offering both formal sitting and dining rooms, as well as a casual open plan zone opening to a wide alfresco deck where Jasmin’s green oasis can be savoured. A fully-appointed kitchen is centrally placed, with extensive storage, providing a wide breakfast bar (and downstairs cellar) to host casual celebrations.
Enjoy family privacy with two bedrooms on each level, complemented by two bathrooms boasting charming period style, including a sumptuous claw-foot bath. Impeccably presented throughout with the comforts of ducted heating, split system air-conditioning, and remarkably generous off-street parking.
An exciting place to live, with a combination of attributes rarely offered in Richmond and inner Melbourne. In zoning for the new Richmond High School opening next year.
