The large main bedroom features a wall of built-in cupboards and is complemented by a second bedroom with seating area or study nook.  The glamorous bathroom has the same period charm but has been beautifully modernised. With a studio/home office on title, parking for one car, rear access to a shared garden with barbecue area, Euro laundry and ducted heating.  A tram on the doorstep offers direct access to Kew Junction shops and restaurants, and the city, Box Hill and the Eastern Freeway are in easy reach.
