Balancing contemporary family liveability with bespoke circa-1970s modernist style, this light-filled and spacious four-bedroom home, set on almost three-quarters of an acre in the prized Frankston High School zone, offers zoned living and entertaining, an adaptable layout, indoor/outdoor connectivity to an alfresco pool deck, and an expansive lawned rear garden.
A private, gated courtyard entry with tranquil fishpond water-feature introduces the bespoke style elements of the rendered brick split level home, that is further endorsed inside with towering three-metre-plus pitched ceilings, expanses of polished hardwood flooring, and an abundance of wide-format windows and glass doors offering connectivity and outlooks to garden vistas incorporating courtyards, lush lawns and leafy treetops.
An elegant entry foyer flows to the main living space, with wood fire heater, and steps down to an entertaining/bar area, with French doors opening to the wraparound alfresco deck that incorporates an above-ground built-in swimming pool. The central kitchen is well-equipped with a Bosch oven, gas cook top, and an Electrolux dishwasher, while a wall of west facing windows overlook the decks, and offer big sky views of nightly sunsets. Steps lead down to another spacious living room, with French door access to the rear deck, and views across the vast rear garden, with established trees, attracting local kookaburras and rosellas, and down to the 'enchanted woodland' gully, a much loved haven for kids' adventuring.
Bespoke internal doors, reclaimed from heritage train carriages, provide definition and sound-proofing in the main bedroom and second living space. The main bedroom is positioned at the front of the home and features a sliding door opening to the front courtyard, a walk-in robe, and an adjoining ensuite/bathroom. There is also a study/home office, and second bedroom in this wing, while the additional two bedrooms are positioned in the rear section, along with the main bathroom and second living space.
Additional features include a powder room, a laundry with external access, split system heating/cooling, gas central heating, ceiling fans, lots of built-in storage, a garden shed plus a storage shed at the front of the property and off street parking for four vehicles, including space for a boat or caravan.
Tightly-held and family-focussed, this low-traffic neighbourhood, is zoned for Frankston High School and Derinya Primary School, and is on the bus route for Peninsula Grammar and Toorak College. Leafy and tranquil, on the edge of Sweetwater Creek, this exclusive pocket is equally close to Frankston CBD, Mount Eliza Village and a choice of beaches, parkland, sporting amenities and nature reserves.
