Quietly located on an idyllic 743 sqm approx. allotment with a garage, workshop and irrigation system, this impeccably-presented solid brick home is an absolute standout of composure, cohesion and calm throughout an extensive setting perfect for a family close to elite schools including MLC, Xavier, Ruyton, Trinity and Carey Grammar, trams along High Street, Cotham and Glenferrie Roads, the cafes, restaurants and shops of Kew Junction and Glenferrie, as well as Victoria Park and playground.
