Expertly updated and tastefully designed by the Melbourne architecture firm Card Practice, this charming post-war cottage is a perfect blend of timeless appeal and modern convenience, appealing to both savvy investors and discerning buyers alike. Nestled on a flat, low-maintenance 637m² block, this residence is ideally located within a short stroll of local schools and essential amenities, offering an inviting lifestyle in one of Kenmore's most desirable pockets.
Interior Features Built for Comfort and Style
Recently renovated in 2023 with a distinctive Queensland-inspired flair, the true heart of this home lies in its impressive kitchen. Spanning nearly the full width of the home, this mid-century modern-inspired kitchen artfully combines sleek lines, timber cabinetry, and luxurious stone benchtops, crafting an elegant yet functional space that's ideal for culinary creativity. Flowing seamlessly from the kitchen, custom bi-fold timber doors open onto a spacious outdoor patio, offering a versatile extension of the living space. This area, brimming with privacy and charm, makes it perfect for relaxed gatherings or quiet moments.
The residence features three well-appointed bedrooms, each thoughtfully designed with air conditioning and ceiling fans for year-round comfort. Ingeniously hidden within the streamlined kitchen cabinetry, the entrances to these bedrooms provide an understated sophistication and maintain the clean, polished aesthetic of the home’s design. Both bathrooms have been meticulously updated with gracefully curved lines, robust concrete benchtops, and refined brass fixtures, each fitted with luxurious rainfall shower heads for an elevated experience.
Flexible Living Spaces and Additional Highlights
An outstanding addition to this property, the converted garage offers flexible potential as a home office, creative studio, or “man cave.” Boasting a cozy timber chalet aesthetic and private access, this space balances style and functionality, with the potential to easily transition into a complete granny flat for those seeking dual living options.
Prime Kenmore Location
Situated in a quiet, tightly held pocket of Kenmore, the home’s location is truly second to none. With no through roads, this serene community is in close proximity to Kenmore State School, Kenmore Village, and the nearby courtyard shopping precinct, making it an ideal choice for those who value both convenience and tranquility.
