16 Dight Street, Collingwood

As cute as they come, this freestanding two bedroom Victorian residence has been tightly held for more than 20 years and has been sympathetically renovated over that time for functionality and liveability with a nod to its period aesthetics. A bluestone paved entrance frames the façade and green wall entry that leads you into the tranquil interiors. Stained glass doors, custom made period sash windows, lofty ceilings with roses, timber floorboards and picture rails are beautifully showcased throughout. At the rear, a spacious open-plan kitchen, living and dining zone forms the heart of the home. Lovely natural light and bifold doors with retractable flyscreens to the north-east rear garden are some of its defining features. The kitchen integrates a gas cooktop, dishwasher, granite island and pantry, while the garden has been thoughtfully landscaped to offer a deck and herringbone paved terrace perfect for outdoor dining and enjoyment. The two double bedrooms with built-in robes are spacious and inviting, with one enjoying lightwell outlooks, while the modern renovated bathroom with separate shower and bath, features floor-to-ceiling tiling and laundry facilities. Complete with two working fireplaces, ducted heating and refrigerated air conditioning and security gate with video intercom. This impeccable hideaway resides in an up and coming Collingwood precinct on the CBD’s fringe and enjoys fabulous accessibility to the MCG, restaurants, public transport, cafes, retail stores and vibrant Smith and Gertrude Streets.
