Murrumbeena's Golden Mile presents a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a true piece of the suburb's history. Positioned proudly on the high bend of Clive Street and Narbethong Road, this authentic 1930's Art Deco residence overlooks the leafy surrounds of historic Boyd Park, commanding the most prestigious position in the street.
The home showcases the elegance of its era with decorative ceilings, timber architraves, original light fittings, bevelled glass doors and pristine floorboards, all carefully preserved through a renovation of the highest quality. Freshly painted inside and out in era-appropriate tones, the home offers complete turnkey living where you can simply move in and enjoy. The character begins at the original slate-tiled porch with sensor lighting, camera and alarm system, leading through double bevelled glass doors into a wide entry foyer with coat closet.
Accommodation comprises three spacious, fully carpeted bedrooms with large built-in robes and blinds, two of which are fully air-conditioned. The bathrooms are exquisite, with the main featuring a walk-in shower and generous vanity, while the enormous ensuite off the primary bedroom rivals a five-star hotel. Both bathrooms are appointed with Michelangelo marble benchtops, Perrin & Rowe basins, tapware and toilets imported from London, complemented by LED vanity mirrors, sconce lighting and striking Art Deco fixtures.
The formal lounge is bathed in winter sunlight and warmed by a Jetmaster Heat & Glo fireplace, flowing through double bevelled glass doors into the large formal dining room, which could alternatively serve as a fourth bedroom. The kitchen is beautifully appointed with Caesarstone benchtops, Smeg oven, dishwasher and skylight, seamlessly connecting to the informal living area. French doors surround this sunlit space, opening to a newly built timber deck designed for entertaining.
Practicality is delivered with a well-sized laundry featuring matching cabinetry and Caesarstone benchtops, along with a large walk-in linen closet or general storage space. A pull-down ladder in the hallway provides access to extensive rooftop storage, while original floorboards gleam underfoot throughout.
Outside, decorative side gates lead to a standalone garage with Merbau feature wall, and the low-maintenance garden features a water filtration system, faux grass, built-in lighting and a repointed terracotta tile roof above. Central heating runs throughout the home, while the peaceful location is enhanced by fabulous neighbours and an array of conveniences.
From this enviable position, Chadstone Shopping Centre is just a five-minute walk away, Hughesdale and Murrumbeena train stations are within easy reach, and the local bus stop is a quick three-minute stroll. Families will appreciate the short walk to Murrumbeena Primary School through the park, where you can hear the school bell from your doorstep. This is an exceptional opportunity to secure an irreplaceable home in one of Murrumbeena's most tightly held locations.
