A radiant alfresco surprise, directly opposite and overlooking the verdant expanses of Malvern Gardens, this remarkably peaceful and extraordinarily large, two bedroom Edwardian home perfectly synthesizes its original circa-1910 character with a more contemporary alfresco rear and the exciting possibility of further extension (STCA). Set behind privately gated front gardens, this solid brick home evokes a soothing sense of sanctuary, making it perfect for everyone from busy couples and young families with a vision, to savvy downsizers keen to retain a blue-ribbon Malvern presence.
Beyond a traditional tiled veranda and set on bluestone foundations, this warmly welcoming and hydronic-heated home opens to reveal a rich period heritage complemented by Baltic Pine flooring and a lounge that is warmed by a gas-converted fireplace. At the rear of the home and underpinned by a European kitchen, its open-plan dining / living room is a contemporary space that retains a soaring, period-compatible ceiling height as it flows outdoors to a private alfresco rear that is both sheltered by established trees and soothed by the sounds of a water feature. Further highlights include driveway parking, a heritage-styled spa bathroom, a laundry / powder room, plantation shutters and split system in addition to the hydronic heating.
This is an esteemed location merely metres from Malvern Central School and within easy reach of a diversity of elite private schooling options, whilst all the sass and sophistication of High Street Armadale is just up the road, Glenferrie Road and Tooronga Village are also nearby.
