26 McIlwrick Street PRAHRAN

Comments on 26 McIlwrick Street PRAHRAN

The real highlight of this Windsor end of town home is the surprisingly large block. It’s hard not to be taken with the garden setting at the back, where the mature plantings and a private feel bellies the fact it is located in the inner city environs. Beyond the garden is room for one or maybe two cars - such is the width and depth of the land (380 square metres). There is no carport, though this could be rectified (STCA), and you could add some more storage capacity while at it.

Inside, the home itself has two strong spaces, aside from the more standard fare, with a large living area at the rear that takes in views to the garden, and the main bedroom, which has cleverly incorporated quite a good ensuite and walk-in robe - although it has sacrificed a secondary living area to do so.

This one-way street is a quiet one and if you can get past the adjoining properties (a basic home on one side and the backs of a row of terraces on the other), this hidden double-fronter has quite a bit to recommend it for young family buyers or professional couples. The proximity of ‘three Ps’: park, primary and secondary schools and public transport, all a couple of minutes walk away, as well Chapel St shops and restaurants, could help ensure that this home serves as a longer than five year hold.
