1/135 Sherbourne Road, Montmorency, Vic 3094

Unwilling to compromise, the owner of this charming town residence searched for years before finding it. His requirements for the perfect downsizer were stringent: It had to be modern, close to transport and conveniences, with beautiful surroundings and a lovely yard for entertaining and gardening, and enough space to host guests whilst also being low maintenance.

This special home offers all that, and more. It's set quietly at the rear of a tightly held community of eight properties, a warm enclave where neighbors get together for barbeques. In its lovely treed environment, it offers a sense of tranquility and relaxation, offering every comfort a first homebuyer, professional or downsizer could want.

Fully renovated throughout, the home features three bedrooms, a large open lounge, modern kitchen with Miele appliances and stone benches, and stylish bathroom with FTC tiling. Northerly outlooks drench the rooms with light.

The outdoor entertaining areas are where this home really shines. A timber deck gives way to tranquil gardens, presided over by a majestic Cypress tree. There are provisions for vegie gardens, and room for the kids to play.

Located on the border of Eltham, the property is steps from bus transport and just moments from Montmorency's Were Street shops, train transport, schools and abundant parkland.

Beautifully maintained inside and out, this appealing home is infused with charm and easy to fall in love with.
