For 23 years, this solid brick home has provided a welcoming family setting, with generous living spaces, a deck for entertaining and a garden to enjoy. Set behind a secure gated entry with off-street parking for three vehicles, it sits on a substantial 725sqm* in a leafy pocket of Brighton East, a short walk from Dendy Park. It has been renovated over the years with family life in mind.
With generous storage throughout, the floorplan offers four bedrooms plus a study to suit every stage of family life. The master bedroom has a walk-in robe and ensuite, and the other downstairs bedrooms have generous built-in robes. A central family bathroom and a separate powder room complete the ground floor. Upstairs, a first-floor retreat with its own ensuite and Velux skylights can serve as a self-contained bedroom, a teenager's retreat or a guest suite. A studio/gym provides a further space to train, work or unwind.
The entire front garden is the work of landscape designer Philip Withers, with native planting and bluestone crazy paving leading to the arched entry vestibule.
Solid spotted gum floors run from a wide entry foyer to a tri-zone living and entertaining area, and every living-area window has a garden outlook. The modern kitchen is finished in bush-hammered granite, with a Miele gas cooktop and double oven, a sensor-lit step-in pantry and a strong visual connection to the rear garden.
Glass sliding doors open to a large entertaining deck with an automated awning and a plumbed-in barbecue, surrounded by mature landscaping. Children will love the in-ground trampoline and the productive veggie patch, while the whole family can enjoy the gas-heated swim spa all year round. This is a backyard children will grow up in.
Additional highlights include a full-size laundry, evaporative cooling, ceiling fans in the bedrooms and a split system upstairs.
Brighton Golf Course, Brighton Secondary College, St Leonard's College and Haileybury are close by, and the shopping and dining of Hampton, Bentleigh and Brighton are all within easy reach.
After over two decades ownership and considered improvements, this well-maintained home is ready for its next chapter. Freestanding family homes on 725sqm in Brighton East are increasingly hard to find.
