Set within a breathtaking north-facing garden and pool oasis on 663sqm (approx), this circa 1920 Californian Bungalow has been architecturally transformed into a spectacular dual-level family domain that delivers an uncompromising approach to contemporary living. Serenely hidden behind beautifully landscaped gardens, the home's original character is revealed before the architecture rises dramatically through the rear extension, expanding upward and outward to capture natural light and garden views through carefully positioned glazing, enriched by oak finishes and soft green tones.
Vaulted ceilings soar above the expansive living and dining areas, centred around a Stuv wood fire and walls of glass that draw the eye directly across the deck to the garden and pool beyond. The sleek white kitchen, finished with stone benches, Miele appliances, an integrated fridge and a butler's pantry, allows entertaining to unfold on any scale while remaining completely connected to the living spaces. Sliding doors extend the room to a generous deck overlooking the deep L-shaped garden and picturesque heated pool and spa, creating an enticing backdrop for summer gatherings beneath the ornamental grapevine pergola. Stepping down through the landscaped grounds reveals thoughtfully curated outdoor zones designed for both entertainment and relaxation, while a second, undercover deck, accessed from the hallway and living room, introduces a private garden setting that encourages gentle cross-flow breezes throughout the home.
The main bedroom enjoys tranquil garden views and features a lavish dressing room, a designer ensuite with a freestanding bath, and a second ensuite bedroom, along with a versatile guest bedroom or sitting room on the ground floor. Upstairs, soaring cathedral ceilings crown an exceptional children's domain comprising two additional robed bedrooms, a chic central bathroom and a rumpus room. Additional highlights include a dedicated study with a built-in desk and window seat, hydronic heating, reverse-cycle heating and cooling, double glazing, a powder room, a large laundry, a garden shed, and secure off-street parking for multiple cars, accessed via electric gates, all located in a prized Caulfield South pocket close to Glen Huntly Station, vibrant shopping and dining precincts, Princes Park, tram routes and leading schools.
