A white picket fence, ornamental pear trees and established gardens introduce this captivating four-bedroom residence, where traditional charm meets the generosity of contemporary family living.
Beyond sweeping lawns and clipped hedges, an enticing succession of indoor and outdoor spaces embraces a swimming pool, with sheltered decks, sunny courtyards and lush palms completing a beautiful setting for relaxation and entertaining.
Winding brick paths lead through the gardens to a veranda and interiors rich in character. Ornate cornices, a decorative ceiling rose and timber floors bring a gracious quality to the lounge, where French doors open wide to the greenery, inviting the pleasures of the garden indoors.
Warmth and individuality distinguish the kitchen, pairing crisp white cabinetry and grey benchtops with exposed timber detailing and an Ilve freestanding cooker. A substantial islands generous preparation space and casual seating, while a particularly delightful breakfast nook creates an intimate corner for leisurely mornings.
Equally welcoming, the spacious living room features custom shelving flanking a gas fireplace set within a handsome stone surround. Glass doors open to an expansive covered wraparound deck, drawing the swimming pool and its leafy surrounds into view.
A separate theatre/media room introduces another dimension to family living, with soft carpeting and deeper wall tones creating a private retreat.
Along the northern side, a spectacular wall of glass stretches beside the pool, its louvre windows admitting fresh air and bathing the dining area in sunlight. At the far end, doors open to a paved courtyard, where towering palms and luxuriant tropical foliage flourish amid the northeast-facing gardens.
French doors give the main bedroom access to its own private veranda, where established gardens afford a picturesque backdrop. Mirrored wardrobes and a light-filled ensuite enhance the suite, while three further bedrooms, each with built-in robes, offer generous accommodation.
An oval freestanding bath sits alongside louvred windows, its smooth curves contrasting with the river pebbles underfoot in the rainfall shower, while a floating timber vanity and eclectic pairing of mirrors lend the family bathroom a distinctive personality.
A separate laundry and WC, extensive storage, garden shed, and single carport complete the practical appointments.
Moira Avenue Playground and Ashwood Avenue Park are a short walk away, with A.F. Peterson Reserve and Sandringham College also close at hand. Highett Village's cafes, shops and station bring everyday convenience, while Sandringham Village and the beach invite days by the bay.
