Overview

"Bellwattle" A Family Home of Distinction

Beyond its beautifully established garden and return verandah, "Bellwattle" c1910 reveals one of Canterbury's finest fusions of heritage grandeur and architect-designed contemporary living. Occupying a coveted corner allotment on a picturesque tree-lined streetscape, this five-bedroom Federation residence has been meticulously extended and renovated to deliver a home of rare proportion, flexibility and character. Polished timber floors flow beneath soaring ceilings through a gracious hallway to elegant formal living and dining rooms with original open fireplaces and bay windows. The main suite is generously scaled with an open fireplace, walk-in robe and a stylish ensuite featuring a frameless glass shower and floating vanity. Two further spacious bedrooms, each with classic period detailing, complete this wing. Upstairs, two further tranquil, light-filled bedrooms, one with walk-in robe, one with built-in robes, and both with split-system units, are serviced by a stylish central family bathroom with bathtub, and a versatile retreat or study space. Extensive attic storage adds further practicality to a home that already offers exceptional storage throughout. Towards the rear of the home, a superbly appointed kitchen centres on a stone island with a breakfast bar, a suite of premium Gaggenau appliances, and a walk-in pantry offering exceptional storage. This flows into a breathtaking family living and dining zone where a vaulted ceiling with clerestory windows floods the space with natural light, centred around a contemporary fireplace and opening through full-width glazing to a vast stone dining and entertaining terrace with outdoor fireplace and built-in barbecue. Beyond, a solar-heated swimming pool is framed by manicured hedging, while a rear garden provides lawn space and genuine privacy. Rare ancillary features include three-car garaging with side-street roller-door access, storage and a rustic stable block, offering flexible potential as a creative studio, workshop or teen retreat. Enhanced by hydronic and split-system climate control, alarm system, laundry with powder room, plantation shutters, and multiple entry points, including independent pool access, this is a home where every detail has been considered. Set within the prized Maling Road precinct, daily life is enhanced by the village's boutique cafes, The Maling Room, specialty shops and Canterbury Gardens. Zoned for Canterbury Primary School and within easy reach of Camberwell Grammar, Camberwell Girls Grammar, Strathcona and Canterbury Girls' Secondary College, with Canterbury station moments away, the family credentials are as compelling as the home itself.
