Make history with 100 years of period beauty in the location of a lifetime. Combining a Centre Rd hub location with a high-achieving McKinnon College Zone address, this c.1926 four bedroom, two bathroom Californian Bungalow celebrates a century of beautiful family living in a prized family lifestyle location.
Extended from a solid-brick base with gracious formal lounge and dining rooms separated by ornate glass doors and a generous family room positioned at the entry to a rear kids' wing, this spacious home is appointed for today with quality appliances, including a Smeg gas cooktop, in the classic kitchen, and a period-inspired main bathroom beside the master bedroom.
Richly detailed with sparkling leadlight alongside deep timber panelling, and elaborate decorative ceilings above vintage light fittings, this impeccably presented home offers a wealth of comfort with grand fireplaces (one open, one converted to gas), reverse-cycle air-conditioning, fan-cooling, updated wideboard flooring plus hardwood floors, and built-in robes for every bedroom. Set in fairytale gardens with an old-world fernery-style al fresco area and firepit lawn to entertain, there are hedged 'garden-rooms' for kids to explore, and three-car parking including a carport to make life easy.
At home in the heart of the Centre Rd rail precinct, this lifetime location offers a great family lifestyle too. Just 10 doors to the heart of the retail strip, one block to the station, and 350m to the wide open spaces of Allnutt Park, the property is a stroll to cafes, specialty shops and supermarkets, just down the line to Monash University, and in-Zone for both high-achieving McKinnon Secondary College and popular Bentleigh West Primary School.
