2 Rippon Street, Footscray, Vic 3011

This spectacular property creates a context for experiencing and enjoying lifestyle excellence. A corner site in one of Footscray's most prized, prestigious pocket complements the privacy, quality and flexibility of this fabulous family home, its superb, sunny outdoor backdrop and a bright studio apartment above the secure tandem garage that's accessed from Robinson Road. 

The elegance of the external aesthetics is immediately matched by the appeal of indoor proportions that include a living and dining domain featuring outlooks over the alluring 14.2m lap pool and three sets of French doors to the landscaped, low-maintenance backdrop. The open-plan kitchen's stone benches, stainless steel appliances and ample cabinetry deliver complete modern efficiency while alfresco entertaining is made easy by the garden's mains gas barbeque.

A welcoming downstairs bedroom and bathroom precede three further bedrooms and two additional bathrooms above, featuring a majestic main bedroom with a walk-in robe, designer ensuite and romantic balcony retreat. Beautifully bright, faultlessly maintained and enhanced by the inclusion of hydronic heating, evaporative cooling, ducted vacuum, security alarm and a 4 kilowatt solar panel system, this irreplaceable residence has a fabulous forever home feel.

Beyond the garden dimensions, the secure remote controlled lock up garage contributes total convenience below the self-contained studio apartment where a balcony brings in beautiful northern light - a perfect teenager's domain, work from home zone or possible source of short stay accommodation income. Proximity to schools, the Victoria University campus, the new Footscray Hospital precinct and excellent public transport options – including tram and bus routes within five minutes' walk – further enhances an inner-city property of significant style, size and stature. An inspection is highly recommended
