42 Devereaux Street, Oak Park, VIC 3046

Taking in some of the most extraordinary vistas found anywhere in Melbourne, this mid-century classic offers a warm and welcoming family environment with scope to personalise as the years go on.

High above the street in a tightly held pocket, terraced gardens frame a façade with all the charm of yesteryear, prefacing an interior with ample room for a family. Three bedrooms are joined by impressive storage and a tidy central bathroom, while an open kitchen/meals area flanks a quiet lounge glancing across the valley to capture spectacular city sights. Spanning the entire width of the home, a covered alfresco makes entertaining a breeze, while a substantial backyard gives kids plenty of room to burn off their energy. Benefiting from side walkway access, a lower-level fourth bedroom proves ideal as a visitor's suite or professional's office, while other highlights include reverse-cycle heating/cooling, stainless-steel kitchen appliances, a lower laundry/living area, easy under-house access with usable storage space, and a scenic front balcony.

Offered for the first time in over 50 years, it's only steps to great coffee at Francis Winifred, buses bound for Pascoe Vale, the local leisure trail, and sporting clubs on both sides of Moonee Ponds Creek, while close to the Aquatic Centre, Northern Golf Club, Oak Park Station, and CityLink for quick CBD commutes.
