130 Noble St, Newtown, has been extensively renovated since it was last sold.
Located in a highly desirable area of Newtown, this classic red brick bungalow was originally designed by Buchan, Laird & Buchan Architects in the 1920s.
Attracted by the house’s presence and character on the street, the sellers say the north-facing private 1023 sqm block and its location were also draws.
“We absolutely love the tree-lined neighborhood. We can walk to everything: schools, coffee and of course Kardinia Park,” they say.

The dining room has an original fireplace.
The current owners have extensively renovated and expanded the original footprint so that the substantial five-bedroom home at 130 Noble St, Newtown, now combines its original classical charm with a modern architectural design.
“The renovation was completed at the end of 2020. It took almost two years to meticulously restore this home,” says the seller.
“It was a complete renovation and extension with architectural design and was built by CJ Henderson. The inspiration was to create a beautiful family home with spaces for all stages of life.”
Outside, the property’s circular driveway, wraparound front veranda and landscaped gardens have hosted everything from family gatherings to weddings.
“Our fondest memories were getting married in our beautiful backyard on a beautiful summer day and bringing our two children to this house and watching them reach their milestones,” says the seller.
An old telephone in the entrance hall is a legacy.
There is a mix of formal and informal living spaces.
The kitchen has two ovens, an integrated fridge/freezer, a hob and a walk-in pantry.
The layout, features and functionality of the house are spread over two levels and have a family at its core, with an upper floor offering three extra large bedrooms, each with built-in wardrobes, a study area with a built-in desk.
Two further bedrooms, including the master suite, are located on the ground floor, where a range of flexible living areas are accessed via a spacious hallway.
“This is the ideal family home,” says the seller. “There are so many spaces we love, from the kids’ area upstairs to the luxurious master suite.
“We love entertaining in the kitchen/diner, which leads through the outside of the house into the large outdoor area and is such a beautiful place to relax.”
The 1203 m² property offers plenty of space for children to play.
The ensuite is elegantly finished.
The main bedroom has both hydronic heating and ducted heating and cooling.
One of the home’s best features is its flexible floor plan, which can be adapted to the changing needs of its current owners.
“The house has changed significantly for us since we moved in, as we welcomed our young children, and the house has been transformed,” they say. “We used the home office/guest room as a playroom for them, and the upstairs became their space.
“It suits a growing family at all stages of life and ticks all the boxes, with a large rear garden and a rumpus room currently used as a gym.”
