Consciously renovated to merge its original period heritage with a contemporary sense of country-like charm, this 2 bedroom plus study period home is turn-key ready to be enjoyed in a sought-after position just moments from the vibrancy of Koornang Road. Opened up to embrace natural light and create an uplifting sense of proportion, the home fosters joyful indoor-outdoor connections to suit home entertaining and family life, all within easy walking distance of the cosmopolitan dining, great cafes and strip shopping that makes Koornang Road such a destination.
At its heart, the home's dining / living area is anchored by a gourmet kitchen that unites a modern 900mm stainless steel oven / cooktop, farmhouse sink, and a heritage-style cabinetry with waterfall-edged stone benches that include a large central breakfast bar / island. Complemented by a huge, garden-backed window splash back and barn door through to the study and more garden views, the kitchen creates an alluring sense of depth and is utterly charming.
Large concertina doors bathe the living area in natural light and extend the open-plan living outdoors to a north-facing, undercover deck that will delight entertainers but also makes a perfect spot for a peaceful morning coffee with company from the Currawongs enjoying the backyard's established trees. With a heritage-style cubby also in the backyard, the home's flow is ideal for family life and the sense of sanctuary is surreal.
Offering exceptional accommodation, each of the bedrooms is comfortably king-sized with large built-in robes and plantation shutters, whilst the bathroom is a genuine showpiece defined by a huge window that looks out upon a completely private and lush, garden backdrop allowing you to shower in style.
Additional highlights include a home office with double doors opening to the deck for a delightful working from home environment, as well as a laundry, powder room, gas ducted heating and 3 split systems, and finely detailed 3 metre period ceilings that are boldly complemented by contemporary feature lighting.
Just a gentle stroll from lively restaurants, cafes and bars on Koornang Road, as well as plenty of shopping and city-bound trains from Carnegie Railway Station, this is a terrific location, close also to parkland, trams, the Carnegie Memorial Swimming Pool and only moments from Chadstone Shopping Centre. Zoned for Carnegie Primary School and Glen Eira College and moments to St Anthony's Primary School.
A property that presents a perfect entry to the Carnegie house market, whilst offering so much for the downsizers in need of charm and space, 67 Holywood Grove has something for everyone.
