Our house is a typical post-war house and is around 70years old. It’s set in a lovely leafy eastern suburb of Melbourne about 15kms from the main CBD all accessible via public transport (train, tram & bus) a short walk away. Although the bones of the house look a little dated (it’s a home not a show house, and we like it that way) our furniture and decor is in great condition and quite eclectic with very old antique pieces, through to Deco era and 1950’s. There is plenty of heating and cooling although not centralised, and a lovely large living room out the back with glass windows on three sides. It is a lovely space to relax.
