Wide north-facing frontage framed by leafy plane trees between Pitcher Park and the Darebin Parklands reveals this secluded 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom single-level residence showcasing architectural flair and floorplan flexibility in an easy-care, landscaped setting. High walls and an automatic gated driveway secure this spacious, light-filled executive sanctuary, beautifully framed by garden greenery and offering an exceptional low-maintenance lifestyle in a peaceful, highly prized Alphington pocket. A wisteria-draped pergola entrance immediately opens to a substantial living and dining room with polished hardwood floorboards and surround-sound speakers where a curved wall, soaring ceiling and wide sliding doors direct the focus to a garden-set entertainment terrace bathing in an abundance of northerly light. An adjoining kitchen with a waterfall-edge stone island integrates quality Ilve and Fisher & Paykel appliances, while further is a handy fitted study area, a central bathroom (deep bath, frameless walk-in shower) and a full-size laundry with a dedicated drying cabinet. Revolving around a tranquil fishpond courtyard, all 3 bedrooms are of excellent proportions with 2 including built-in robes, while an exceedingly-comfortable main suite features a study desk alcove, walk-in robe and a smart private ensuite. Other attributes of this impressive residence include hydronic heating, video intercom, heated towel rails, rear utilities courtyard, secure off-street parking and internal remote-control garage with a workshop area. Achieving the perfect balance of modern style and functionality, this beautifully composed home is desirably situated with a short, level and easy stroll to parklands, playground, trails, Alphington train station and the farmers market, while only moments to primary and grammar schools, Fairfield Village shopping and the freeway.
