Delightfully nestled between Union Road and Maling Road, 'Lanark' is a richly warm and welcoming Edwardian residence offered for the first time in 20 years with four bedrooms, two bathrooms and north-facing poolside entertaining to ensure it is the perfect place to lay long-term family roots. Steeped in tradition and yet so much more than a period piece, the home is ready to be enjoyed on a 767 square metres (approx.) allotment of primarily native gardens, while offering scope for further rejuvenation, extension (all STCA).
Introduced by a wrap-around front veranda, the home opens to reveal soaring ceilings and lofty Edwardian proportions enhanced by Baltic Pine flooring, exquisite ceiling detail and traditional fretwork before opening to an updated open-plan rear that is lit by northern sun and proportioned for family life. Glass doors dissolve the indoor-outdoor connection as the home invites guests to step outside to undercover entertaining and a sundrenched solar-heated swimming pool that is set in bluestone paving.
The lounge room offers some welcome relief from daily family vibrancy, whilst the primary bedroom delivers to parents a sense of sanctuary with large built-in robes, a fireplace and a fully-tiled ensuite. Further highlights include driveway parking for up to four vehicles, built-in robes in another two bedrooms and a genuine family bathroom.
This is a tightly held, leafy and prestigious location with a dream family lifestyle offering, near a diversity of Melbourne's most elite private schools, that also allows you to walk to so many great cafes, fine restaurants and plenty of shopping at both Union Road and Maling Road, plus you have easy access to trains from Union Railway Station and much more shopping to be found at Camberwell Junction, Box Hill Central and Whitehorse Road.
