Overview

Inviting character weatherboard in an exceptional family location

Commanding a sweeping corner block with wide frontages to both Dorset Road and peaceful Parry Street, this charming single-level character weatherboard home offers inviting interiors bathed in natural light. Framed by low-maintenance leafy gardens and a classic picket fence, the home showcases polished hardwood flooring beneath lofty ceilings, and also offers exciting scope for contemporary updates or redevelopment in the future if desired (STCA). Positioned just steps from buses and an early learning centre, and a short stroll from Dorset Recreation Reserve, Dorset Primary School, Eastfield Park and Fred Geale Oval, the home is also within walking distance of Swinburne University and lush Carrum-Warburton Trail. Croydon Station and Main Street shops are both moments away, with Eastland Shopping Centre also a short ten-minute drive. At the entry, a generous living room with elegant ornamental cornices overlooks the spacious front patio, and flows to a separate dining area enjoying a sundrenched north-east orientation. The modern open plan kitchen includes ample storage, a breakfast bar, and stainless steel appliances including a 900mm gas cooktop and an electric oven. Securely fenced for children and pets, the outdoor space also features a spacious paved terrace bordered by lush magnolia trees and a large raised veggie garden. Three light-filled bedrooms include a substantial master, complemented by an airy central bathroom with a shower over a corner bath tub and a convenient separate toilet. Featuring ducted heating, split-system air conditioning, roller blinds, a full laundry, and a recently repointed roof, the home also includes a single lock-up carport leading to a large paved area ideal for securely storing a caravan or trailer, plus additional off-street parking in the driveway.
