76A The Parade, Ascot Vale, Vic 3032

Hidden away while enjoying every lifestyle allure of neighbouring Union Road, this serene and secure gem offers a light-filled take on low-maintenance living, equally ideal for downsizers, professionals, and young families.

Encompassed by greenery, a clever interior promotes real-world functionality, with a pair of large bedrooms accompanied by excellent robe storage and a smart, skylit bathroom. Its ambiance reminiscent of that in a country retreat, warm timber tones span pine floors and blackwood benchtops, while ribbons of all-day sun enliven an open hospitality space. Premium appliances feature in a storage-rich kitchen, while broad living and dining zones spill seamlessly into a yard primed for the regular entertainer. Swathes of verdure ensure privacy across the year, with walkway access from The Parade, while rear lane access ensures room for a securely off-street park.

With highlights including evaporative cooling, reverse-cycle heating/cooling, plantation shutters, a full-size laundry, and zoning for acclaimed Moonee Ponds West/St Mary’s Primary Schools, it’s no more than footsteps to first-rate coffee, renowned restaurants, boutique shops, city/Highpoint-bound trams, Ascot Vale Station, and the blissful surrounds of the Maribyrnong River.
