Overview

Timeless Character, Contemporary Family Living

There's a warmth to this home through the loving restoration of Art Deco character, combined with the contemporary refinements of innovative design, that welcomes immediately. Well proportioned and family focused, the residence blends the beauty of original features with inspired updates. Considered outdoor areas and a well connected Glen Iris location making it ideal for families. Established trees and front lawn frame the detailed brick arched entry, while tall palms rise behind the roofline setting a leafy scene. Out the back, another lawn, vegetable patches and covered alfresco patio and pool enhance the sense of privacy and expanse. Upon entry, double stained glass doors open to timber floorboards, leading into a living room where an Art Deco fireplace anchors high ceilings and original windows. Sliding doors with striking glass detail sit to each side. At the heart of the home, the kitchen looks across the backyard and pool area, with the dining and lounge areas flowing around the central island bench. This communal area, combined with direct access to the outdoors, ensures easy entertaining.
