Set high on the elevated side of a quiet street, this tightly held three bedroom, two bathroom Californian Bungalow sits on approximately 703 square metres and delivers space, flexibility and period presence in equal measure.
From the front porch, there is a sense of outlook and pause, a place to sit and take in the view. Inside, the home honours its era with confidence. Original floorboards finished in a soft satin sheen, leadlight windows, ornate ceilings, French doors and bay windows create a consistent sense of craftsmanship throughout.
At the front of the home, a north facing formal living room opens through French doors to a formal dining space with garden access. Towards the rear, the kitchen, living and family zone is designed for everyday family life, offering abundant bench space, a dishwasher and room to move, anchored by a bay window that draws in light and garden outlooks. This living area opens directly to a deep bullnose verandah with the garden beyond, creating an easy indoor-outdoor connection with plenty of room for kids, pets and guests. Beyond, a flexible rear studio or garage adds genuine versatility, ideal as a workspace, creative studio, gym or additional storage.
The north facing main bedroom is generous and beautifully positioned, featuring a bay window, decorative ceiling and private ensuite. Two further bedrooms, one with built-in robes, are supported by a large central bathroom with separate shower and bath.
Practicality is well considered with ducted heating, split system heating and cooling, solar panels, bore water installed, security alarm system, excellent storage, a separate toilet, separate laundry and exceptional car accommodation including a carport and ample off street parking for multiple vehicles.
What truly sets this home apart is its position. Quiet and private, yet remarkably well connected. Ideally placed between Darling and Murrumbeena stations and surrounded by outstanding schooling options, kindergartens, Murrumbeena and Lloyd Street primary schools, St Mary's primary schools, De La Salle College Year 9 campus and a selection of private schools.
Cafes, restaurants and daily conveniences are close at hand, with Carnegie Central, parklands, bus services and Chadstone Shopping Centre all within easy reach.
This is a home of presence, flexibility and longevity, ready for its next family.
