Overview

Reimagined Heritage Beauty in Prestige Pocket

So much more than its pretty original façade, this seamlessly extended period home has been winningly reconfigured to cater for contemporary family lifestyles. Incorporating heritage details in the form of bedroom fireplaces, surrounds and mantlepieces, with retained Baltic pine flooring, stained glass feature windows, ornamental ceiling roses and hallway fretwork, the front of this beauty honours a gentler era without sacrificing modern requirements. Each of the elegant four downstairs bedrooms, containing BIR’s and plantation shutters, are serviced by a striking charcoal tiled family bathroom (bath & shower). An impressive kitchen, with extended island/breakfast bar, 900mm Smeg oven/gas cooktop, Fisher & Paykal dishwasher, practical pull-out pantry cupboard plus ample storage cabinetry, adjoins the central dining room with bi-fold doors out to a fabulous alfresco deck and BBQ. Enjoy movie nights in the rear living room with ceiling mounted speakers ready to be connected for the full surround sound experience – pass the popcorn please! Upstairs, a large mezzanine lounge and study alcove creates an ideal parent retreat for the adjacent main bedroom containing WIR and ensuite (shower). Under stair storage, a practical laundry and powder room, plus ducted heating/evaporative cooling, split system, ceiling fans, delightful established gardens featuring mature shady trees and a tool shed, complete an exemplary property in a prestige location. Walking distance to schools, cafes, local parks, and village shops, with easy access to trams and trains, and zoned for St Therese's and Aberfeldie Primary School and Buckley Park College, this gem of a home will appeal to lovers of heritage homes with heart.
