Essendon

WELCOME HOME

Old-school charm, new-school living - and not a hint of compromise. A classic Edwardian at heart, thoughtfully expanded where it counts and polished without losing its soul. The charm? Very much intact. The upgrades? Spot on. The backyard? Green, generous and made for long lunches, kids' cricket or evenings under the stars. And the location seals it. Rose Street is just around the corner for coffee, brunch and spontaneous nightcaps, with Essendon Station and elite private schools completing the picture. Every box, well and truly ticked.
