Evoking timeless charm and enduring quality, this character-filled weatherboard residence nestles effortlessly into its landscaped surrounds, creating an enchanting street presence framed by a picket fence and leafy cottage gardens. Designed and lovingly built by its owners just two decades ago, this expansive home offers an exceptional family lifestyle, where thoughtful details meet long lasting craftsmanship.
Behind a welcoming verandah, interiors are distinguished by 10-foot coffered ceilings, rich Sydney Blue Gum flooring, and double-glazed timber casement windows. At the front of the home, a sumptuous master suite sets a tranquil tone with VJ panelling, warm pendant lighting, a fully fitted walk-in robe, and a luxurious ensuite with a sunken spa bath. Opposite, a guest suite – equal in comfort and scale – boasts its own walk-in robe and ensuite, creating a second main bedroom option.
Continuing through the wide hall, a formal lounge with a gas log fireplace provides an elegant space to retreat, while an adjoining formal dining room leads to the expansive open-plan living zone. At its heart, a chef's kitchen impresses with dual Miele ovens, a 900mm gas cooktop, semi-integrated dishwasher, and exceptional storage, all designed to meet the needs of modern family life and effortless entertaining.
The family room is warmed by a second gas log fireplace and opens through timber sliding stacker doors to a spectacular alfresco area complete with an outdoor kitchen, seamlessly connecting to a sun-drenched pool and landscaped backyard. The triple garage is equally impressive, incorporating a workshop and flexible studio space ideal for creative pursuits.
Designed with versatility and privacy in mind, a separate bedroom wing includes two generous bedrooms with fitted built-in robes, main bathroom featuring a clawfoot bath, family-sized laundry and an abundance of linen storage that defies expectations. A dedicated home office with bespoke cabinetry provides a quiet space to work or study, while ducted heating, split system air conditioning, an abundance of off-street parking and a video intercom doorbell deliver everyday functionality.
Positioned on a sprawling 1028sqm (approx.) allotment, this beautifully presented home is walking distance to Melba Secondary College, Ainslie Parklands Primary, Burnt Bridge Shopping Centre and Ainslie Park, with easy access to Croydon Main Street, Eastland, EastLink and public transport options.
