This week's find is the kind of home that grabs your attention straight away, particularly if you have a soft spot for retro character done exceptionally well. Packed with personality and offering surprisingly generous proportions, it is a home that feels distinctive, memorable and genuinely worth a closer look. One of only three residences, this home has undergone a high-end renovation that feels considered at every turn. Warm timber ceilings, clerestory windows and polished aggregate floors establish a strong modernist influence, while every surface, fixture and finish has been selected with an exacting eye, resulting in a family home with a remarkable sense of cohesion.
Filled with natural light, the entry leads through to a beautifully proportioned open plan living and dining area, accompanied by a high-end kitchen that suggests whoever renovated the home spends as much time cooking as they do entertaining. Extensive preparation space and storage make it a kitchen intended to be used properly, not simply admired from afar. Large windows and doors create a strong connection to the outdoors, opening to an expansive paved courtyard framed by established greenery, a private setting equally suited to entertaining or quieter moments at home.

The three bedrooms are positioned towards the rear. The main includes a walk-in robe and stylish ensuite, while two further bedrooms share a refined central bathroom with a separate bath and shower. Plus, there’s a double garage with internal access and laundry with storage. Set within the blue-chip Sackville Ward, the biggest challenge here may be deciding which way to walk. Auburn Village, Burke Road and Glenferrie Road are all within easy reach, along with High Street and city-bound trams, leading schools and more cafés than most people could reasonably justify visiting in a single weekend.
