Rich with yesterday's Californian bungalow grace and reimagined with today's family space, this four bedroom plus home-office, 4.5 bathroom home is a unique find. Offering the multi-zone, full-suite floorplan usually reserved for the biggest brand-new builds, this exceptional home provides today’s perfect family floorplan in an authentic period context, graced with high decorative ceilings, lovely leadlight, and warm original floorboards and fireplace.
Maintaining the essence of the traditional plan with a fine formal lounge, the home steps back into afternoon sun with expansive living-dining and quiet media lounge wrapping north-westerly decking ... then steps up to a large lofty lounge at the heart of the first-floor. Immensely accommodating with a walk-in-robe and ensuite (all but one fully private) for every bedroom, the home offers parental privacy in the most gracious ground-floor suite ... or the adaptability to choose almost anywhere to sleep.
Up-to-the-minute in style with a state-of-the-art European appliance kitchen fronted by a deep dining-bench and designer finishes for each equally well-detailed bathroom, the home is curated in up-to-the-minute style with sleek stone benchtops and custom-fitted cabinetry (including clever walk-in robe fitouts). Prestige appointments are here too, including climate-control, a video-intercom and double glazing where it's needed most.
But it's the outstanding commitment to family-wise features that truly sets this home apart. From a large laundry extending to a drying room, to dual Miele dishwashers and a walk-in pantry for the kitchen, every detail has been considered. There’s firewood storage for the open-fire of the principal living zone, four fitted workstations for the business-at-home office ... even a laundry chute! Landscaped for low-maintenance with plentiful parking including a double carport out front, there are two levels of decking to entertain and vegie boxes in mow-free garden behind.
Perhaps most perfect of all is this streetscape of substantial Californian bungalows just off Linacre Road. Within a walk of Hampton Street’s latte strip, station and beach, this tightly-held address is in easy road and rail reach of the central Brighton and South Road schools, and well within the in-demand Sandringham Primary School zone.
