With rare period beauty, a great family floorplan and the tennis-courts and parklands in view, it's Love-All here! Grand, gracious and beautifully located overlooking EE Gunn Reserve, this substantial c.1930 home is a superior example of its time; sympathetically extended from a solid-brick base to provide a surprisingly contemporary four bedroom, 2.5 bathroom floorplan.
Reimagined for a modern family with an in-demand ground-floor master-suite, this family-wise design offers great triple zone living with gracious lounge and dining (or home office), family living flowing to al fresco entertaining, and a large first-floor lounge with a dormer-windowed bench seat and study area. Starring a state-of-the-art Smeg and Asko appliance kitchen with a clever dual-duty butler's pantry-laundry, the home offers today's family-functional extras including an immense ensuite, big powder-rooms on each level, and built-in robes for every bedroom.
Making a grand entrance with a wide lobby and sweeping timber stairway, this richly detailed home features two impressive open-fireplaces, lavish leadlight including beautiful beveled-glass double-doors, and never-painted timberwork... all beneath lofty corniced ceilings. There’s a wealth of contemporary comfort too; with ducted heating plus reverse-cycle air-conditioning, timeless plantation-shutters, and two sets of vast bi fold doors to the terrazzo-floored al fresco ‘conservatory’. Even the outdoors offer a rich blend of yesterday's beauty and today's family amenity with a double carport and a charming brick workshop (perfect as a future poolside studio or work-from-home office) in a groomed garden paradise.
Beautifully located with the parklands, tennis-courts and golf-driving cage opposite (and the football oval in view from the upper level), there's handy additional on-street parking at the door, Ormond shopping strip and station within a couple of blocks, and Kilvington Grammar School within a stroll. Zoned for in-demand Caulfield South Primary School, and close to all the community facilities, there's Princes Park and Caulfield Recreation Centre within a jog, and the bus to the beaches and Monash University Caulfield at the end of the street.
