Be immediately captivated by the gorgeous bow-bay windowed façade of this c1911 Elwood Edwardian residence. A freestanding home that has been loved by the current owners for more than a generation, it is your chance to procure an established property merely steps to the glistening foreshore and local icon Jerry's Milkbar.
Buffered and screened from the road behind a colourful winter garden, the home is enhanced by glorious leadlight windows and introduced by a tessellated tiled verandah. Once inside, pale timber floors sit below lofty decorative ceilings - the feature fretwork arch finished in sleek sophisticated black blurring period charm & contemporary style with striking effect.
Through the generous entrance, the formal lounge is warmed by a wood-burner set in a tiled & timber hearth, while the conservatory-style dining zone flows into a smart kitchen boasting quality Bosch/Siemens appliances and looks out to the private alfresco embraced by towering wall gardens and with a tranquil fish pond all enjoying the afternoon warmth.
The front two bedrooms both feature a gorgeous bay window, one with a gas flame fireplace and practical Murphy bed, the other with a bank of fitted wardrobes. Bedroom three has a Murphy bed of its own and together they share the contemporary bathroom with a separate powder room and an additional toilet off the modern laundry. Rounding off a truly irresistible home is Daikin heating/cooling, a water tank and 9 solar panels.
In an enviable locale, the home is a stroll to parklands and the beach; with buses out the front, there is Ormond Road village and Acland Street nearby while Elwood College and Elwood Primary School are also nearby.
