24 Barry Street, Brunswick

A notable c.1924 creation by prominent local Victor Heiberg, this beloved three bedroom home is filled with the finest features and now includes an architect designed studio/bedroom with ensuite. Presiding over a corner in an attractively positioned plantation street, the elevated clinker brick home is introduced by a striking pediment and productive garden. Tightly held for decades and honed throughout the years to create a stylish sanctuary, favoured spaces include a living room with gas log fire and superb chef's kitchen/meals, showcasing glorious marble surfaces, a 90cm Smeg stove with double oven and Jotul wood heater. A wide glass aspect leads to a paved courtyard with welcome touches including an espaliered lemon tree. To the rear is the eye-catching studio above secure parking with an automatic roller door and a separate pedestrian entrance fronting Collier Crescent. Enhanced by a marble-tiled bathroom with heated floor, leadlight, high ceilings, loft storage, heating/cooling and Royal Oak Floors, it's just a stroll to large parks, trams, cafes, shops and more.
