Overview

Elegant Edwardian, lifestyle prestige

Behind a graceful solid brick exterior, this distinguished freestanding Edwardian home stands in a beautifully manicured garden and low maintenance setting moments from Hawksburn village. An automatic gated entrance and prized off street parking add to the appeal. Period features such as ornate ceilings, stained glass windows, cornicing, fireplaces and vast sash windows accent a four bedroom, two bathroom interior that establishes plenty of space for a range of ages and family stages. Polished timber floors flow through the hallway to the open plan living room, where distinctly zoned sitting and dining spaces are ideal for versatile family living, adapting to changing needs over the years. Step out to the rear garden where a lawn and partially undercover deck provide a space for retreat or entertaining. A refined second living room is tranquil, spacious and adds good flexibility. Four bedrooms are all generous in size and share two elegant bathrooms. A quiet ambience is established thanks to carefully positioned double glazed windows, while features include a well appointed kitchen, laundry facilities and reverse cycle heating and cooling. Walk to Hawksburn station within minutes, enjoy an easy commute to the CBD, dine in style on Malvern Road, Toorak Road or Chapel Street and access good tram connections.
