Behind a classic red-brick facade, gabled roofline and established front garden sits a home that has been renovated in the places you can see and, more importantly, the places you can't. The character is all here: decorative fireplaces, polished floorboards and generous, light-filled rooms. What's changed is everything underneath. This is a home where the hard, expensive work is already done, so the next owner simply moves in.
Accommodation: Three bedrooms, two with decorative fireplaces, one with a full wall of built-in robes Central bathroom with bath and heritage-style checkerboard tiling, plus a separate WC Light-filled living room and a separate dining room, both opening to the home's easy flow Renovated kitchen with quality appliances, stone-look benchtops and a garden outlook over the sink, casual meals area and a large combined laundry/pantry.
The rare extras: Oversized garage/studio (8.1m x 4.4m) with a timber-lined raked ceiling and its own split-system, currently fitted as a home gym and studio, opening to the garden Central paved courtyard (6m x 5m) for entertaining, plus a landscaped rear garden Mitsubishi split-system reverse-cycle heating and cooling to every zone, house and garage CCTV and intercom, and a new hardwood fence with automated gate.
Renovated with substance Underpinned, restumped and rewired, with new gas and mains water lines, repointed brickwork, a chimney rebuilt in heritage style, a new hot water system and a re-roofed, insulated garage. This is a period home future-proofed for decades of low-maintenance living. The location Positioned in blue-chip bayside Elwood, within the Elwood Primary School and Elwood College catchments and close to Ormond Road's cafe and shopping village, Elsternwick Park, Elwood beach and city-bound transport. A tightly held pocket where character homes rarely come this ready.
