Full of classic charm, this two-bedroom, solid red brick home pairs well-kept original character with a sprawling backyard and two generous living spaces. A quiet, leafy street close to trains, parkland and Oakleigh’s lively village is an appealing setting for first-home buyers, downsizers and investors alike.
A welcoming central entry leads to the living room, where a gas fireplace, split-system heating and cooling, ornate cornices and wide windows set a warm, inviting tone. The kitchen and dining area has gas cooking, a stainless steel dishwasher, a double sink, plenty of cabinetry and room for a breakfast table. Both bedrooms include built-in robes. The main has a ceiling fan, and the second has a built-in desk between its robes. The bathroom has a shower and a vanity with drawers. A separate laundry and second WC add to the home’s practicality.
At the rear, the paneled rumpus room has exposed beams, heating and cooling, and a bar area with a bar fridge. It opens through sliding doors to the covered patio and a wide, level lawn with a large shed. A low brick front fence, established gardens and a driveway car space complete the package.
Zoned for Huntingdale Primary School, this dream family home sits on a large block in a quiet pocket near Jack Edwards Reserve, the Djerring Trail and WA Scammell Reserve, with The Metropolitan Golf Club close by. Huntingdale Station is within walking distance for an easy city commute, and Huntingdale’s local shops and cafés are just around the corner. Oakleigh Central handles everyday needs, Eaton Mall’s café and dining strip is close by, and Chadstone and Monash University’s Clayton campus are both within easy reach.
