Distinguished by its period character, and defined by its compelling potential, ‘LEXTON’ is a classic and rare double fronted Victorian residence that represents a wonderful opportunity to further enhance (stca), in a setting rich in lifestyle rewards.

The original façade creates a great introduction to a series of spaces offering irresistible scope. High ceilings and traditional proportions remain throughout, with up to four downstairs bedrooms. Previously updated living, dining and kitchen dimensions precede a backdrop of pleasing depth.

An upstairs retreat featuring a fitted desk adds further flexibility to consider contemporary possibilities for this evocative property. There are currently three bathrooms including one that serves the studio above the secure double garage.

A generous workshop, the versatile studio, courtyard privacy and the garage’s rear lane access further enhance the chance to adopt and adapt one of Carlton North’s prettiest period properties.

Rathdowne’s leafy streetscape, renowned shops, cafes and proximity to Princes Park, the University of Melbourne campus and the CBD ensure the appeal of the address matches the allure of the project – and the outcome will meet all your demands and desires!
