Positioned on a landscaped corner allotment in one of Brunswick West's most convenient pockets, this beautifully renovated Californian bungalow pairs classic period charm with a striking contemporary extension, delivering a home of rare scale and remarkable versatility.
Behind the picket fence and freshly landscaped gardens, leadlight double doors open to reveal ornate ceiling roses, high decorative ceilings and stained glass windows across a wonderfully adaptable floor plan. Four generous bedrooms include master with walk-in robe and private ensuite, while one bedroom has a beautiful fireplace-warmed that offers the choice of a second living area, formal lounge or additional bedroom depending on your needs.
The rear of the home is where it truly comes alive. A vast open-plan living and dining zone stretching over eight metres flows to a sleek stone kitchen featuring an integrated fridge freezer and dishwasher, mirrored splashback, quality appliances and abundant soft-close cabinetry, while full-width sliding doors dissolve the boundary between inside and out, connecting to a covered alfresco terrace overlooking the low-maintenance rear garden with established trees and synthetic lawn.
Adding even more flexibility, two oversized rooms at the rear of the home offer endless possibilities. One is fitted with built-in cabinetry and desk space, ideal for professionals working from home, while the other is perfectly suited to a home gym, studio or fifth bedroom.
Extensive built-in storage features throughout, alongside a luxurious central bathroom with freestanding bath and walk-in rainfall shower and a second bathroom servicing the rear of the home.
Complete with two garages and ducted heating and cooling, the location delivers the best of two worlds. Stroll to Melville Road or Hope Street cafes and city-bound trams, or head moments up the road to the vibrant Moonee Ponds shopping precinct, the leafy expanses of Queens Park and the exciting new Moonee Valley racecourse precinct taking shape nearby. This is inner-north living without compromise.
