Exclusively nestled in the neighbourly heart of Alphington, backing onto beautiful Darebin Parklands, this much-loved family home is being offered for the first time in 33 years. Embracing breathtaking bushland vistas, the luxuriously proportioned indoor-outdoor design has been extended/updated to cater for contemporary living and entertaining. A secluded city-fringe haven on approximately 610sqm, it is ready for a new generation to move in and establish an enduring lifestyle.
This classic home reveals a generous lounge with a cosy open fireplace, and spacious living and dining zone, bathed in light at the back. French doors provide a seamless flow to the expansive undercover deck, perfect for sunset entertaining with family or friends, and child-friendly backyard with room for a pool and direct access to walking paths connecting the Yarra River. Also outdoors is a fantastic self-contained studio or teenage retreat with a gas kitchenette, heating/cooling and separate bathroom/laundry.
Overlooking the backyard is a large modern kitchen with a 900mm Blanco oven, gas cooktop, dishwasher, plentiful cabinetry and a butler's pantry. Also downstairs is a king sized bedroom with built-in robes, serviced by a bright bathroom.
Well-separated accommodation continues upstairs with three huge bedrooms boasting built-in robes (the main has a gorgeous balcony with views across towering trees abundant with birdlife). Nearby is a sparkling bathroom with a bath, shower and separate powder room, study zone and front balcony.
Features include a European laundry, split system heating/cooling, ducted heating and evaporative cooling, two water tanks, a tandem carport and a further off-street car space. Additionally, it is placed just a short walk to city-bound trains and buses, Alphington Farmers Market and local cafes, and close to golf courses, sporting clubs, both Fairfield and Ivanhoe villages, and great public and private schools. (Zoned to Alphington Primary School and Thornbury High School.)
