21 Byron Street, Elwood, Vic 3184

This charming inter-war bungalow-style semi-detached brick home built in 1919 seamlessly combines original architectural features with a classically modern open-plan renovation, perfect for families, professionals or downsizers.

The home has been recognised by heritage ALLIANCE for its significant heritage value to the City of Port Phillip and is located within the Byron Street precinct, which historically demonstrates the most intact, cohesive and varied evidence of Boom-period residential settlement in Elwood.

Pause to admire the 95 year old facade with its half-timbered gable ends, roughcast render and canted leadlight bay window enclosed within a small private garden before following the tessellated tile verandah to the entry with its original floorboards, high ceilings, deep cornices, ceiling roses and fretwork.
Once inside, a central hallway leads to three well-proportioned carpeted bedrooms, all with restored fireplaces and tiled hearths. The first bedroom enjoys a northerly aspect bathed in natural light with views to the garden and Japanese Maple outside. The second bedroom incorporates generous storage with a large built-in robe and leadlight dormer window. The master suite, also with an abundance of period character incorporates a walk in robe with floor-to-ceiling storage and ensuite bathroom with double sinks, frameless shower and stone bench tops.
Families will appreciate the full-size bath in the similarly appointed centrally located bathroom as well as the ample floor-to ceiling storage in the separate laundry with direct access to the adjacent service courtyard. The simple floor plan allows the bedrooms to be zoned from the living area, which makes this home perfect for family buyers.
At its end, the hallway opens to a large, light and bright modern open-plan living and entertaining space incorporating bi-fold doors that seamlessly integrate the living area with the outdoor merbau timber deck and low maintenance, tranquil secluded landscaped garden (with ROW at the rear). The gourmet kitchen boasts a Caesarstone island bench that doubles as a casual meals area; glass splashback in a classic neutral grey and European stainless steel appliances, while the dining area incorporates a mixture of bespoke cupboards and open shelving for additional storage that doubles as a functional servery for entertaining.

Located just 7.5km from the CBD, with off street parking for up to three cars, and brilliant access to public transport only a moments walk away, commuting is a breeze.

Zoned for Elwood Primary School, and with the convenience of Elwood's popular shops, cafes, restaurants, parks and the beach at your doorstep, this is a beautiful period home that is sure to delight.
