A lovingly maintained mid-century classic that draws from its past while looking ahead to a big and bright future, this 4 bedroom red brick residence is set on a magnificent allotment of 581 sqm (approx.) in a coveted family pocket to reward your vision. Regardless of whether you choose to rejuvenate a rock-solid period icon with hints of Art Deco detail, extend for a modern lifestyle, rebuild or even redevelop (all STCA) the prize here is a lifestyle enriched by excellent school zoning, great parklands, cafes and plenty of city-bound transport.
Beyond the perfection of its immaculate façade, the home unfolds to reveal a broad entrance hall and rich hardwood flooring that ground the home in character before culminating in a light-letting open-plan rear. Anchored by a well-designed kitchen with solid timber cabinetry, the open-plan steps outdoors to a large, elevated terrace that captures glorious northern and afternoon sun, where the promise is one of relaxed dining and drinks with family and friends.
Paying homage to its more formal origins, a traditional lounge at the front of the home is gas heated and semi-attached to formal dining, ensuring there is plenty of space for larger and growing families.
Each of the bedrooms is generously scaled, light and lofty 2 with built-in robes while the bathroom offers some mid-century chic and a separate wc. Further highlights include a lock-up garage, carport and driveway parking for another 3 vehicles, plus there is a family-sized laundry, ducted heating and split system air conditioning, as well as a workshop, a garden shed and even an iconic Hills Hoist clothesline.
With Argyle Reserve just across the road, Duncan McKinnon Reserve, Packer Park and Oasis cafe all comfortably walkable and zoning for Hughesdale Primary School and South Oakleigh College, this is an absolute dream location for family life, plus you have more cafes, wine bars and local shopping at Murrumbeena Village and Koornang Road, with Chadstone Shopping Centre and Sacred Heart Girl's College nearby, GESAC around the corner and plenty of city-bound trains from Murrumbeena Railway Station.
