81 Easey Street, Collingwood
$900,000-$950,000
2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom

Entry level for your own patch of dirt in city-edge Collingwood – for the increasingly white-collar, young-at-heart brigade – gets you something like this sweet single-fronted Victorian cottage. Its ornate facade and majestic parapet front a plainer interior of two bedrooms, bathroom and open-plan living area that opens to a side deck and bricked courtyard.

Three doors from the beach and five minutes from the station and Sandringham’s cafe strip, where Limoncello and Elefant get the agent’s nod, this 1990s townhouse has a new kitchen and timber flooring, a north-facing garden, an easily managed site and family-suited accommodation of three living rooms and four bedrooms – the first-floor main bedroom with bay views.

Tuckpointed-brick Wattleglen is the Edwardian house every Armadale buyer dreams of: beautifully restored and with a sleek new renovation that surpasses the circa 2017 standard. Aside from proximity to transport and Glenferrie Road shops, the family-friendliness extends to warm, stylish living areas flashing touches of luxury, a classy Miele kitchen, kids’ domain upstairs and landscaped garden.

This chic little pad with an address that speaks volumes is in a historic building of two adjoining houses converted in the 1980s into 14 apartments. A recent update by the apartment’s vendor, an architect, gives it bamboo floors and a smart charcoal kitchen. Wander via resplendent 1868-designed St Vincent Gardens to Bridport Street’s lively cafes and restaurants and the city tram.
