Beyond a classic block-fronted façade, this sublimely situated family sanctuary reveals an impressive four bedrooms, spacious study and glorious open plan social heart. Swiftly setting a scene of assured style, high ceilings unite with polished floorboards, elegant shutters, a security system, hydronic heating and cooling. While the main bedroom, with ensuite, enjoys the first floor all to itself, the ground floor highlights a vast open plan living, dining and gourmet kitchen. Combining a 900mm Miele gas cooktop, Blanco steam and convection ovens, Qasair rangehood, Asko dishwasher, waterfall stone island and soft-close storage, the kitchen can't help but compel exacting home chefs. A wide bank of bifold doors leads to a deck and rear garden, hosting a beautiful big tree and handy storage sheds. All bedrooms include built-in robes and some have built-in desks, as does the study. Home to a luxuriously large bath, walk-in shower, wide stone-topped vanity and heated towel rail, the main bathroom is complemented by a powder room and full laundry. A short walk to Northcote Primary and St Joseph's Primary, zoned to Northcote High School, this impeccable abode is a stroll to trains and the trams, shops and eateries of vibrant High Street.
