1 Frogmore Road, Carnegie, Vic 3163

This exceptional home represents the superb craftsmanship of the era in which it was constructed, delivers classic elegance and beauty, embodies welcoming warmth and comfort, showcases delightful period features, and expresses the love and care that has gone into maintaining and enhancing its beauty. Furthermore, the residence is probably the area's last remaining example of solid limestone construction!
Period features abound - from the etched glass in the front door, to the dark stained timber on architraves, skirting boards and on the strapping on walls and ceilings, to the plate rails in the wide entrance hall, to the ornamental ceiling roses...Superb! A bay window is a feature of the formal lounge room (with gas coal fireplace) that can be closed off from the huge formal dining room that has original cabinets above the (non-functioning) OFP. (Check out the charming pull-out boxes for storing coal or firewood.) The master bedroom has BIRs and shares access to a modern bathroom. Bedroom 2 (BIRs) shares access to another bathroom. There is also a 3rd bedroom. At the rear of the home, polished limestone flooring has been used to stunning effect. This includes the spacious family room where there is a modern kitchen with granite benchtops and splashbacks, an appliance cupboard and a cooktop with electric and gas hotplates. Brick paving, a large covered verandah and a lushly planted garden form part of the picturesque rear garden. Extras include hydronic heating; an approx 7m x 7m garage; and a studio/possible bungalow nestled among garden greenery in the lovely rear garden.
Set in attractive meticulously maintained gardens, on land approx 754sqm, this beautiful property is in a peaceful family-friendly locale close to parks, trams, buses, Koornang Road and Murrumbeena shops, cafes and trains, Chadstone, sports and aquatic centre, other recreational facilities and Monash University.
