With its floor-to-ceiling glass windows, natural stone detailing and Tudor-trimmed gabled roofline, the mid-century origins of 10 Simpson Road are unmistakable on arrival, but inside, extensive renovations have created a sublime, light-filled sanctuary - gifting one lucky family with the best of worlds.
Space-wise, this is a big home - offering 4 generous beds, a fabulous cooking hub, and a mix of formal and casual living/dining spaces - including a large lounge with a stone-framed open fireplace. Almost every room has massive glass windows, seamlessly connecting the interior with its leafy play-friendly surrounds, and modern hybrid timber flooring makes a perfect match for the original parquetry floors on show in the rear family room.
The biggest transformations are easily the centrally located kitchen, now equipped with every mod con, glass splashbacks and swish stone benches, and the 2 fully renovated bathrooms. Both luxuriously full-height tiled with frameless-glass-enclosed rain showers, one serves the rear kids' wing, while the master ensuite adds a freestanding clawfoot tub to the mix.
The interior social spaces are complemented by lush lawned outdoor areas, with a stone-paved front porch overlooking ghost gums and the family room extending through French Doors onto an expansive open-air entertaining terrace with views across the grassy fenced backyard.
From this private paradise, you're barely a stone's throw from an entry point to lovely Bell Yett Reserve's playground as well as peaceful trails through Ferguson Conservation Park - a treasured natural gem within this tightly held eastern enclave. Equally, you score zoning here for top local schools along with proximity to St Peters Girls, Burnside Village and handy public transport.
