Some homes offer space. Some offer character. And some, like this, manage to bring both together in a way that works spectacularly well for all types of families - now and well into the future.
Tucked well back from the road on a generous 926sqm leafy block, this is a home that immediately feels inviting and private, with lush surrounds, birdlife and a connection to nature that the current sellers have enjoyed for over a decade. Inside, parquetry floors, raked ceilings, brick detailing, timber panelling and expansive windows set the tone - warm, architectural, and full of personality.
What really sets this home apart, though, is how it's been put together. The main living areas, kitchen, outdoor entertaining and pool all come together on one level, creating a layout that makes entertaining, day-to-day living and even supervising kids in the pool feel seamless. Add to that a fully self-contained granny flat, an enormous multipurpose area (with full 2.4m legal height), and the kind of flexibility that allows the home to adapt as life changes - whether that's for extended family, working from home, or simply needing more room to spread out.
And when you combine all of that with a large block, parking for 4 vehicles and a location within easy walking distance to Kenmore Village, schools, cafés and transport… you start to see why homes like this are so tightly held and so quickly snapped up by savvy buyers.
