1 Thomson Rise, Parkdale, Vic 3195

Rise above it all with a superior blend of period grace, family space and bay-view living! Standing tall in a quiet court, this three bedroom, two bathroom home captures ground-floor bay views and a panoramic first-floor outlook. Retaining all the beauty of another era with elaborate Art Deco ceilings, a marble-surround fireplace and warm polished boards, this enchanting home offers a modern family plan with formal lounge and dining, a casual area around the granite and European appliance kitchen and first floor retreat with study area. Graced with a plantation-shuttered master level (with WIR and a bay view from the ensuite shower), this elegant home also combines period elegance and modern style in a state-of-the-art bathroom with marble-topped vanity and freestanding bath. Opening wide through two sets of French doors to broad bay view decking (converted by a wind-out awning to a virtual al fresco room!), this clever home steps out to offer even more accommodation with a teenager retreat easily re-converted as garage. Alarmed and centrally heated with reverse-cycle air-con upstairs and down, this elegant home is set in kid-wise gardens (with designer cubby) in the most kid-friendly court by the bay. A walk to the station, bay and shopping strip, this one rises to the height of gracious family living.
