Beautifully balancing the best of classic and contemporary architecture, this premium Edwardian residence is simply irresistible. Built in 1910, the splendour of the long return verandah is enhanced by a lovingly landscaped garden behind a high and private brick wall.
Generous traditional proportions along with high, ornate ceilings and leadlight have been beautifully retained through the formal lounge with open fireplace and enticing home office/sitting room with open fireplace and a large bay window which frames a perfect view over the lush front garden.
Sun-filled, open-plan living complemented by a wall of windows is ideal for the modern family. The stylish kitchen with European appliances and walk-in pantry with trap door to small cellar flows to the dining and family room with gas log fireplace, extending via French doors to an elevated deck with plumbed BBQ overlooking the garden and solar heated, salt chlorinated pool.
Boasting 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, appreciate the master with heritage-styled ensuite as well as one of the upstairs bedrooms which is filled with a stunning city view.
Recently repainted, newly carpeted, re-stumped and re-wired, a host of fabulous features includes excellent storage, laundry, gas ducted heating, split system air-conditioning, Digital Telephone System, network cabling, 2x2500 ltr water tanks for gardens and pool, and double auto garage from rear ROW.
This ideal family environment is matched with a highly sought-after locale where you can walk to everything. In the desirable Canterbury Primary, Canterbury Girls' and Camberwell High School zones, stroll to these schools as well as Strathcona and Siena College, while Canterbury train station and delectable Maling Road cafes are just steps away.
