Overview

A timeless Californian with stellar sunlight & space to spare

In the leafy heart of lauded Kensington, this classic Californian Bungalow is an evocative example of the style, emphasising preservation of character, clever functionality, and turnkey liveability for a family to enjoy for decades to come. As picture-perfect as the day it was built, a timeless facade leaves a lasting impression on its prestige street, beyond which a period and modern seamlessly entwine. A double-door entrance, high, ornate ceilings, timber fretwork and wall panelling, and era-typical light fittings all accentuate old-world appeal, while the plan's formal lounge and dining areas prove ideal complements to a stellar entertainer's suite at rear. Stone benches, plentiful cabinetry, and a complete Bosch fit out all enhance a first-class kitchen, while living and meals zones step into a broad alfresco and yard beyond, brilliant for hosting friends and family, firing up the built-in barbecue and pizza oven, and letting kids burn off their energy in a vast, leafy backyard. The expansive parcel has the further benefit of uninterrupted frontage to a wide side laneway, broadening design possibilities to offer scope for a future garage, marquee extension, or backyard subdivision and new-home build (STCA). With ample room for a family to grow into, ground-floor main and guest rooms are well-served by excellent robe space and an elegant bathroom with a clawfoot bath, while above, robe-lined third and fourth bedrooms, a tidy bathroom with a skylight hatch, and versatile study/fifth bedroom surround a relaxing retreat and balcony taking in sweeping sights. Other highlights include comprehensive heating and cooling, hardwood floors, ceiling fans, a combined lower laundry/third bathroom, shed and workshop, front driveway parking for at least two cars, and a living room wood fire for cosy winter nights. On what is unquestionably one of Kensington's finest streets, it's only footsteps to Local Folk for a world-class coffee, scattered parks and sporting facilities, nearly complete Kensington Recreation Centre, the picturesque Maribyrnong River Trail, verve of Kensington Village and Newmarket, city-bound 57 Tram, and train stations on two separate lines.
