An intoxicating period façade, summer poolside sparkle and dual street frontages – this family beauty on approx 534sqm is a rare treat indeed. Evoking a sense of bygone nostalgia with a picket-fenced cottage garden and shaded fretwork verandah, the light-filled accommodation continues the journey with decorative leadlight bringing colour and charm to the original part of the home.
Beneath soaring ceilings, the layout provides an inviting lounge flowing into a garden-view study zone boasting a gorgeous stained glass bay window. A later addition bursts open to the rear and houses an open plan entertaining zone (slate flooring) comprising a well-equipped kitchen and generous spaces for living and dining crowned by a stunning exposed beam ceiling. Suited to the daily thrum of family life, this area spills out for summer relaxation alongside the solar/gas heated pool and a lawn with room for play.
Further nods to family function come with three ground-floor bedrooms, each one offering fitted wardrobes and sharing a large bathroom providing a spa bath & separate shower. And when it comes time for parents to relax, the upstairs main suite with bathroom resides beneath rich timber cathedral ceilings and offers a sitting area, balcony with pool views and substantial fitted cabinetry which incorporates a dressing table.
Ducted heating, a wood-burner and split systems take care of seasonal highs & lows, while a Euro laundry and attic storage conclude the interiors. Accessed from Railway Road is a double garage as well as a gated hardstand that will ensure boys’ toys, caravans & trailers are well taken care of.
Guaranteeing an effortless way of life, the home is literally steps to the tram taking you to Glen Huntly station & shops. An easy walk to Carnegie Primary School and the kindergarten, it is also close to buses and a walk to Koornang Road dining strip, shops & Carnegie station.
