Auction Location: On-Site
Morning sunshine on the verandah, children walking to school and afternoons that spill into the garden. In this quiet Ashgrove enclave, opposite green space and steps from Dorrington Park, family life has room to flourish. Elevated on a fully fenced 592sqm parcel, the home welcomes a northerly aspect and cooling cross-breezes, with a thoughtful renovation carrying its c.1928 charm into a new chapter of comfort and connection.
Behind the gabled frontage, the original character remains beautifully present. Upstairs, 3.2-metre ceilings rise above timber floors and VJ walls, while fretwork, plantation shutters and doors allow air to travel through the rooms. Fresh paint, new flooring and carpet bring a renewed sense of warmth, creating a home that feels inviting from the moment you arrive.
Life gathers on the upper level, where living and dining flow around the renovated marble kitchen and out to the north-facing verandah. Prepare meals with the children playing within view, then take dinner outdoors as the breeze moves through. Overlooking the greenery, the verandah becomes a favourite place to pause with coffee, welcome friends or settle into the evening while conversation carries between inside and out.
Downstairs, a second living area gives teenagers somewhere to make their own, with space for friends and easy access outdoors. Side paths connect the front and rear yards, encouraging children and pets to roam, while a garden path leads to the magnesium pool, heated spa and firepit retreat, inviting weekends to move naturally between swimming and sunshine, before towels are put away and the family gathers beneath the stars.
Across five bedrooms, the arrangement adapts as your family grows. Two bedrooms upstairs allow younger children to stay close to parents, while three below offer teenagers privacy and visiting guests their own space. A dedicated office can close off for concentration or open to the living area, keeping work and family life comfortably connected. Both bathrooms have been newly renovated, with rainfall showers, sensor-lit mirrors and feature sconces, plus an upstairs bathtub for a quiet soak at the end of the day.
Additional property highlights:
- Remote 2-car garage with additional room for a jet-ski, bikes, or a trailer
- Front and rear garden lights, plus sensor step lights in the garage for night safety and security
- Brand-new roof, interior paint, vinyl plank flooring and carpet
- ILVE 900mm oven, 6-burner gas cooktop, LG dishwasher
- Ducted air-conditioning upstairs, split system in downstairs living
- Remote ceiling fans, security-screened doors, intercom system
At the end of the road, Dorrington Park opens to acres of greenery and playgrounds, and the Enoggera Creek Bikeway invites rides that stretch well beyond the neighbourhood. After-school play and weekend picnics become part of the routine, as do walks to Marist College, just 300m away, Mt St Michael's and Oakleigh State School. Pick up coffee at Famished on Frasers, meet for lunch or collect groceries at Ashgrove Marketplace, and enjoy an easy city connection with bus stops 130m away and the CBD only 6km from home.
