6 Chrystobel Crescent, Hawthorn, Vic 3122

Surrounded by many of Melbourne’s most prestigious homes for over a century, this large Federation brick home’s original grace and character have remained largely untouched on a magnificent 985sqm parcel with rear ROW. Clearly a grand family home when built early in the 19th century, its six principal rooms remain intact today, providing a rare opportunity to combine your contemporary vision with that of its early craftsmen. Includes approved Plans and Permits to modify/renovate the existing heritage house and undertake a modern 2-storey extension to the rear. Just a short stroll from elite private schools and the renowned Glenferrie Road retail precinct. Beneath its enchanting slate roof, a sweeping return verandah precedes a wide entry foyer, three breathtaking reception rooms featuring broad bay windows, leadlight/etched glass windows, soaring pressed metal ceilings and handsome open fireplaces, and three additional rooms enjoying high ceilings and period fireplaces.
