13 Hillside Terrace, Ascot Vale, Vic 3032

A lifestyle stand-out in every respect, this hillside haven with two street frontages pairs the style and substance of a tasteful renovation with the grace and elegance of century-old roots, all in a river setting that’s among Ascot Vale’s most prestigious.

Augmented by a veranda taking in vivid sunsets over the Maribyrnong River, the home’s captivating façade and unforgettable street stance prelude an interior where form and function entwine. With abundant robe storage in sizeable main and second bedrooms, a brilliantly broad third bedroom doubles as a living space to provide flexibility, while at the plan’s rear, an extended lounge spills into a substantial yard with ample room for large-scale hospitality. Trendy splashback tiles, a 900mm Smeg cooker, and stone benchtops all enhance a combined kitchen/meals area, while other highlights include two bathrooms, ducted heating/cooling, black-stained Baltic pine floors, high, ornate ceilings, plantation shutters, a cubbyhouse, large shed, under-house storage, and plentiful parking on Hillside and Crown Terraces.

Accompanied by fully endorsed plans for a luxury extension with a pool, garage, open living/dining area, and remarkable sights across the Maribyrnong, the home is perfectly placed for a morning coffee at Middle Child cafe, sunset drink at the Anglers Tavern, stroll around the river, nine holes at Riverside, a hit on the tennis courts, and easy tram ride to the CBD, with acclaimed schools, lively Union Road, and Highpoint all nearby.
