This gorgeous Victorian Bungalow with modern extension is a seamless integration of character and charm with functionality and contemporary living. Set in a highly sought-after area of Yeronga, bespoke, hand-crafted timber cabinetry is a standout feature of this home marrying the old with the new.
Entry is through the original cottage which has been thoughtfully renovated and retains elements of classic Victorian appeal, including dark-stained timber wall panelling, decorative cornices, and polished hardwood timber floors.
The kitchen is at the heart of the original space. The butcher's block bench top provides a functional preparation area with the gas cooktop, dishwasher, ample storage & a walk-in pantry completing the features. A separate study with built-in bookcase and storage is positioned off the kitchen, plus there is another bespoke study nook. A modern bathroom and good-sized separate laundry with outdoor access are also located on the lower level.
At the rear of the home, a modern extension is the real showstopper. Designed with clean lines and an open-plan layout, it creates a light-filled space that's perfect for entertaining and today's lifestyle. The marine ply ceilings are a point of difference while opening the 6m-wide bank of American Oak sliders really blurs the lines between indoor and outdoor living - a clever design to make the most of the afternoon river breeze. Polished concrete floors are a stylish and functional addition. The backyard offers low-maintenance gardens framed by citrus & olive trees with a built-in barbecue area.
The home features 5 bedrooms, the main bedroom is on the lower level with an ensuite which includes a bespoke vanity unit made from a 1930s lowboy, complimented by a traditional black and white colour theme. Ascend the feature timber staircase with strip lighting to a further three spacious bedrooms plus a separate TV/games room, which could become an extra bedroom if required. Bed 2 has a large walk-in wardrobe, or great play area for kids to enjoy. The modern bathroom has a separate bath and shower and there is a walk-in storage room with shelving.
This north-south aspect is a rare find. It's the perfect home for families, professionals or anyone looking to enjoy the best of both worlds offering a unique mix of character, comfort, and contemporary flair.
