1/22 Muir Street, Frankston, Vic 3199

A masterful blend of period charm and modern comfort, this superb home enjoys glorious street appeal and a privileged position with steps at the end of the street that lead down to the beach.
One of Frankston South's early homes, a series of sympathetic additions and improvements have transformed the property into a stylish and highly functional family residence.
From the hard wearing Sydney bluegum floors, 11ft ceilings and decorative mouldings in the original part of the house, to the streamlined modern kitchen with stone benchtops, the huge entertaining deck, billiards room or studio opening to the rear garden and an attic-style rumpus room, the home is a seamless celebration of old and new.
Under a storybook twin gabled roofline, the elegant formal entry features picture rails and a decorative arch, while French doors open to a formal lounge with a dramatic ceiling rose and lovely bay windows salvaged from a monastry in Mordialloc.
An open plan kitchen, meals and living space features pristine white cupboards, glass splashback, twin ovens and a Bosch dishwasher while an impressive deck extends the living and entertaining options.
The charming master bedroom features a walk-in robe and ensuite, while two other bedrooms plus the fantastic loft teenage retreat or fourth bedroom, are serviced by a sparkling family bathroom with a freestanding slipper bath.
Set in the Frankston High School zone, extras include gas ducted heating, reverse cycle airconditioning, electric panel heaters, back to base security system, secure under house storage, remote wrought iron gates and a tandem bluestone carport.
