Find yesterday's Art Deco beauty and today's beautiful life amongst the parklands and sports ovals of the booming Landcox Park precinct. A kick to the oval, a dash to the tram and a walk to all the schools, this late-period three bedroom, 1.5 bathroom solid-brick home showcases artful Deco detail against a backdrop of modern comfort and ongoing potential.
Unfolding beyond a finely-detailed decorative brick façade with double etched-glass doors dividing formal lounge and dining rooms, and solid hardwood floors extending to a bright bonus sun-lobby, this richly detailed home features high deep-corniced ceilings, gracious fireplace-mantles and wide sash windows at every turn. Updated in timeless style with a classic gas-appointed kitchen with a Bosch dishwasher, this reverse-cycle air-conditioned home has a wealth of contemporary comfort too; with a quality bathroom (with separate shower and full-size bath) plus a second WC, plush charcoal carpets, built-in robes and elegant timber venetians.
Set in approx 651sqm grounds with a separate home-office/teenage retreat and workshop (easily re-converted to a garage) plus a carport parking in a big old-fashioned backyard, there’s endless scope to extend out or up when the time is right ...and capitalise further on this lifetime address - just half a dozen doors to Hurlingham Park, and a walk across the oval (and past the tennis courts) to the lake at beautiful Landcox Park.
Zoned for in-demand Gardenvale Primary School and 500m to St Finbar’s Primary School, there’s Brighton Secondary College within a walk, the Hawthorn Rd tram to the eastern suburban schools (including De La Salle) around the corner, and all the Brighton private schools (Brighton Grammar School, Firbank and Star of the Sea) within minutes. Within one block a friendly local latte strip, a stroll to Bay St’s station and supermarket and in easy reach of the Church St, this Art Deco period beauty is located for the life you want today.
