Federal Street is a special place to live. Not only is the street short, wide and dotted with pretty Edwardians, but Williamstown North Primary School is at the foot of this picture-book address.

Your new neighbours even hold a Christmas street party every year. Here, you are not only buying a house, you are buying into a community.

 

3B Federal Street, Williamstown, 3016

 

The facade of this townhouse has a contemporary picket fence with twin gates opening to a wide path and a neat downlit porch with a timber store to the side to keep council bins neat and hidden.

Within, there is a wide hardwood hall opening to two large bedrooms with built-in robes, the first with a built-in desk with a deep timber desktop.

The gorgeous central main bathroom has been recently renovated. It has a frameless glass shower with a waterfall head, a floating toilet and white 2pac cabinetry with stone bowl-style basins as well as floor-to-ceiling tiling.

The main bedroom has dual access to the bathroom, and at the rear of the ground floor there is a dedicated study.

Upstairs find the kitchen, meals and lounge room.

The kitchen has stone benches and a glass splashback with a tree-of-life motif, a nod to the creator’s family and the importance of family life.

There is plenty of storage here, as well as a powder room off the kitchen.

For creature comfort there is an automated blind and a rain-sensor sky light which you can open for a cross breeze during summer.

A good sized meals area leads to the lounge room with a deep front balcony providing filtered views of the playground at the school as well as similar views of the city skyline.

Up the carpeted stairs, find the third bedroom, with built-in robes and a small en suite which would be perfect for a teen retreat or an au pair or guest room.

Outside, there is a small deck and a synthetic lawn with room for an outdoor setting. A remote-controlled awning reaching from the rear of the house is three metres deep.

Access to the double garage with rear of way access is by way of a glass and timber door, leading to a garage space with plenty of storage and workshop area.
