Some homes simply have a presence. Tucked quietly within one of Donvale’s most tightly held pockets, this much loved residence is a rare expression of timeless character, graceful proportions and enduring family appeal.
Designed by architect Charles Duncan as an homage to Victorian architecture, crafted by Fasham Johnson in Daniel Robertson brick beneath a slate roof, the home sits proudly across an expansive one acre, 4718m² (approx.) garden allotment. Delivering a sense of privacy and tranquility, this delightful home is wrapped in a shady veranda and embraced by mature trees and rolling green lawn.
Boasting an unmistakable feeling of warmth and permanence, soaring ceilings with intricate decorative plasterwork, double hung windows and French doors celebrate the home’s heritage style, while generous formal and informal living spaces frame beautiful garden views.
A place to gather, celebrate and make memories through every season, at the heart of the formal lounge and dining room, a magnificent marble fireplace acts as a captivating focal point.
Rich original timber kitchen cabinetry, Daniel Robertson quarry tiles and quality Smeg, Miele and Siemens appliances are complemented by abundant storage, walk-in pantry and broad island bench overlooking the meals area. From here, the home unfolds naturally into a relaxed family room, with both spaces opening directly to the garden.
Expansive lawns and established trees offer an extraordinary private playground for children and pets, as well as a peaceful sanctuary for adults. There is space to run, explore, entertain, garden or simply sit beneath the trees and enjoy the remarkable sense of calm.
Privately positioned in its own wing, the master suite provides a peaceful retreat, complete with walk-in robe, bathroom, separate toilet and sauna, together with a dedicated study. Three robed bedrooms provide generous accommodation with an additional study/nursery/bedroom, served by shower room, bathroom and separate toilet.
Everyday comfort is assured with underfloor hydronic heating delivering wonderfully draft-free warmth, split-system air conditioning and a triple garage with additional storage.
Hidden away in a highly regarded cul-de-sac, you are moments from leading private and public schools, bus services, EastLink and the shopping and dining conveniences of The Pines, Tunstall Square and Westfield Doncaster.
A home of substance, soul and enduring beauty, where generous gardens, gracious architecture and treasured family spaces come together to offer something truly special.
