Classic charm, contemporary family living
A distinguished c1942 English-style residence with an elegant tapestry brick façade, this expansive family home on approximately 560sqm blends timeless character with exceptional flexibility across two generous levels. Beautifully refreshed over time, it offers space to grow, entertain and adapt with ease. Moments from Eaglemont Village, parklands and prized local schools, it's a home designed for family life.
Polished hardwood floors, decorative ceilings and abundant natural light create an immediate sense of warmth. The inviting lounge is centred around an open fireplace, while the adjoining dining room opens directly onto an elevated entertaining terrace. Framed by established greenery, it captures sweeping views across the Eaglemont and Ivanhoe East valley towards the Melbourne city skyline.
The granite kitchen is both practical and welcoming, featuring a gas cooktop, wall oven and adjoining meals area. It also enjoys direct access to the terrace, creating an effortless connection between indoor and outdoor living.
The ground floor continues with three generous bedrooms, two fitted with built-in robes, a renovated family bathroom, separate laundry with terrace access and a handy storeroom.
The upper level presents a wonderful opportunity to create an exclusive parents' retreat, featuring an expansive living room, two bedrooms with built-in robes, a renovated bathroom and attic storage.
Comfort has been thoughtfully considered with ducted heating throughout, air conditioning and double glazing. A single garage with internal access, substantial under-house storage and a cellar further enhance the home's exceptional practicality.
Outside, expansive lawns and established gardens provide a wonderful setting for children to play, family gatherings and relaxed afternoons in the sunshine.
Positioned within the Ivanhoe East Primary School and Thornbury High School zones, the home is just an eight-minute walk to Eaglemont Station. Eaglemont Village, Upper Heidelberg Road's cafés and shopping precinct, Yarra Flats Park, Warringal Parklands and numerous local reserves are all close by.
A home of genuine character, remarkable flexibility and enduring quality, this is a rare opportunity to secure an address designed to evolve with family life for decades to come.
