On reviewing the home, the double-fronted Edwardian façade, generous bedrooms and single-level layout create an appealing Carlton North downsizer option. The renovation introduces two bathrooms, including an ensuite, while retaining the character that attracts buyers to Fenwick Street. At the rear, the north-facing garden and sliding doors should support good natural light and an easy indoor-outdoor connection. The main compromise is scale: the combined kitchen, dining and living room measures approximately 7.0 × 3.9m, so this is a compact home despite its wide frontage. The separate studio adds work-from-home flexibility, although it offers limited additional living space. Nearby 502 Rathdowne Street sold for $2.4 million with four bedrooms and parking, while 522 Station Street achieved $2.3 million with two living zones. These results make the renovation quality, northern orientation and single-level convenience central to justifying Fenwick Street’s asking range
