Jellis Craig
Positioned proudly on a generous elevated corner allotment at the quiet bowl of a tightly held court, this beautifully maintained residence delivers timeless character, modern comfort and exceptional flexibility in one of Eltham’s most desirable and walkable pockets.
Held by the same family for over 30 years, the home reflects a deep sense of care and thoughtful evolution. Manicured gardens frame a striking façade, while a double carport with additional space for a trailer, boat or van enhances everyday practicality. Elevated and private, the setting captures afternoon sun and sweeping outlooks across Eltham, creating a peaceful retreat just moments from the heart of town.
Inside, warm mid-century influences are complemented by contemporary updates. The front lounge is inviting and refined, featuring plush carpeting, an open fireplace and bespoke cabinetry, all bathed in natural light and enjoying a lovely elevated aspect. At the centre of the home, the renovated kitchen is both stylish and highly functional, appointed with stone benchtops and splashback, induction cooking, electric pyrolytic double oven with integrated microwave, Franke sink, extensive storage and a clever butler’s pantry workstation. The adjoining dining space flows effortlessly to the rear living zone, creating a seamless environment for family living and entertaining.
The rear lounge opens through to a superb alfresco domain with connection from kitchen via a servery window, offering clear all-weather blinds and an outdoor heater to ensure year-round enjoyment. Sheltered, elevated and exceptionally private, this space is ideal for relaxed gatherings or quiet evenings overlooking the garden. Beyond, the backyard unfolds across multiple zones, including a grassed lawn, paved courtyard, outdoor seating area ready for a future firepit, cubby house, two storage sheds and an automated sprinkler system, all thoughtfully designed to maximise both function and enjoyment.
Accommodation is generous and flexible, with carpeted bedrooms including a main suite featuring walk-in robe and ensuite. A large rear bedroom provides outstanding versatility, easily accommodating guest living, a rumpus or third living zone, or offering scope to be reconfigured into two additional bedrooms if required, effectively allowing the home to function as up to five bedrooms. An updated central bathroom with freestanding shower, separate bath and crisp neutral finishes services the home, complemented by a separate laundry and extensive under-house storage.
Comfort and efficiency are assured with ducted heating, zoned ducted refrigerated cooling via a Mitsubishi system, a split system to the western bedroom, ducted vacuum and a 3.25kW solar system.
Enjoying a coveted lifestyle location within walking distance of central Eltham’s shops, cafés, bars and train station, and zoned for Eltham East Primary School and Eltham High School, this exceptional home combines elevated privacy, enduring style and future flexibility in a setting that has been cherished for decades. A rare opportunity for families, entertainers and those seeking space without compromise.
