Situated on a near-quarter-acre block, surrounded by similarly elegant homes in this Essendon heritage precinct, “Summerhill” presents a gracious mix of period design detail and contemporary architectural excellence.
The preserved historic character of high ceilings, box-bay windows and fireplaces sit comfortably alongside a host of modern aspirational lifestyle amenities.
Grand yet welcoming, the floorplan delivers flexibility for families at all life stages, with generous formal and informal living areas. Stately lounge and dining rooms evoke the charm of a bygone era, while open plan family living/meals extends onto a large alfresco deck, ideal for casual entertaining.
The exceptional central kitchen caters for the keen home chef. A triumph of function and form, stunning leathered Taj Mahal Quartzite counters complement the Siemens combination steam, convection and microwave self-cleaning ovens, Quasair rangehood, Miele Autodos dishwasher, plumbed Fisher & Paykel fridge and sparkling water Zip tap.
A fabulous butler’s pantry contains further walk-in storage, with a discreetly located powder through to the laundry.
Four genuinely spacious bedrooms include master bedroom providing walk-in wardrobe and massive dual accessed ensuite (shower, freestanding soaker tub) second with BIR, plus a further two upstairs, one with built-in central desk, serviced by a family bathroom (shower).
Nestled amidst superbly landscaped established gardens the exterior is arguably just as inviting, with its beautiful wrap around verandah at the front, large deck with retractable awning, and self-cleaning gas heated pool.
Bonus features include ducted vacuum, hydronic heating, split system units, gas log fireplaces, premium wool carpets, RC double carport (plus additional off-street driveway parking), and handy external room (ie home gym/office/storage)
A wonderful opportunity to secure your future in an esteemed Windy Hill neighbourhood, moments from Napier and Fletcher Street cafés, the 59 Tram and Glenbervie Station, with access to the area’s many elite schools.
