A picture of period elegance in an exclusive heritage enclave minutes from private schools, this beautiful Federation brick home retains all the hallmarks of its era alongside luxuriously renovated contemporary spaces designed for fabulous family entertaining. Nestled on the precinct's signature tree-lined avenue, substantial single level proportions with multiple living areas, idyllic indoor/outdoor entertaining zones, a pool and separate studio with bathroom deliver a premium family lifestyle just meters from Rathmines and Angliss Reserves. Made even more impressive by its broad landscaped frontage, a rare twin-bay façade with enchanting arched entry precedes a series of equally charming original rooms whose multi coloured leadlight windows and high decorative ceilings form the stunning backdrop to stylish modern accommodation.
Beyond a broad foyer entry, two generous north facing bedrooms with feature bay windows form unforgettable retreats, one with twin built-in robes, the elegant main with extensive built-in robes/storage and timeless contemporary ensuite. Two spacious bedrooms with built-in robes and desk/storage follow, accompanied by a large central living room where a magnificent arched leadlight bay window creates a stunning feature. At the rear, high ceilings with stepped cornices crown modern open plan family areas, demonstrating the quality of a previous renovation that includes an atmospheric open fireplace, a stylish entertainer's kitchen featuring stone benchtops, 900ml upright cooker and large central island, and garden/pool views. French doors step out to an elevated entertaining terrace with built-in BBQ and fridge, additional decked areas featuring cantilever umbrella and pizza oven, and the landscaped rear garden with sunny, glass fenced pool, poolhouse with kitchenette and flexible multipurpose studio/bedroom with third bathroom.
Further highlights include immaculate family bathroom, laundry, ducted heating, split cooling, plantation shutters, wideboard timber floors, superb, landscaped gardens, remote double garage and additional parking via remote gates.
From this quiet yet wonderfully convenient location, walk through the Reserves to highly regarded Auburn Primary, Carey Grammar, boutique local cafes, Auburn Village and Glenferrie Road or, in the opposite direction, to Camberwell Girls Grammar, Camberwell Junction, Burke Road trams and trains. Shop, dine or enjoy a movie in Glenferrie Road or Camberwell Junction with easy access to Camberwell Grammar, both Kew and Hawthorn private schools and major arterial links.
