On a quiet, low-traffic Mentone Street and affectionately named 'Mulberry' by its owners, this beautifully reimagined 1920s home delights in so many ways.
Basking in warm northerly sunshine and thoughtfully zoned for easy everyday living, it is perfect for young families while dishing up enormous appeal to those who love to entertain, thanks to generous spaces, a seamless indoor-outdoor flow and a truly enchanting pool-side setting where a magnificent Mulberry tree takes centre stage.
Nestled behind a classic picket fence, the home is introduced by a pretty front garden where a meandering brick pathway makes its way to the front door. From here, step inside and discover interiors that are immediately warm & inviting, all set under high ceilings and with original Baltic pine floors underfoot.
Each of the bedrooms is positioned at the front of the house, in a zone of their own. All are good-sized and feature built-in wardrobes; they share two bright bathrooms, the first of which features a charming, repurposed timber/marble wash basin as its vanity alongside a shower over the bath.
The heart of the home is without question its open plan entertaining area, seamlessly connected to the pool, iron bark decking and verdant gardens via banks of bi-fold doors. The gourmet stone kitchen is well placed for dining inside or out in the open-air; among its highlights are a freestanding 900mm Ilve oven.
A fitted study is the ideal spot for working from home. Also offered are ducted heating, evaporative cooling, spotted gum floors (living zone) and a large laundry with ample storage.
With the bonus of two driveways and crossovers, parking is never a problem - a sprinkler system and storage shed complete a truly heart-warming family home.
In the sought-after zones for Mentone Girls' and Parkdale secondary colleges, the home enjoys easy access to public transport, shops and parks while well-regarded private schools and the bay are mere minutes away.
