23 Glenmore Crescent, Black Rock, Vic 3193

This true Black Rock beauty encompasses everything this stunning Californian is famous for.... solid structure, beautiful features and a great plan, spacious and full of natural light. The perfect home for a growing family, this one has been brought up to date with contemporary class whilst still showcasing original features such as leadlight, ceiling roses and fretwork, only 100 metres to the beach and a short stroll to the village. An impressive entrance opens to the expansive hallway, which is a highlight in itself and the study, formal lounge and master bedroom (complete with a beautiful leadlight adorned bay window, large walk-in robe and stylish ensuite), branch off either side, as do the powder room, large laundry (outside access) and another bedroom.

Beyond this stunning hall is an open plan living and casual meals area surrounding the kitchen savvy with a Caesarstone island bench, a spectacular five burner Ilve stove complete with Teppanyaki grill, other quality European appliances and a stunning travertine marble splashback. The back garden is zoned for family play (for the young and not so young) as you step out onto the timber decked and fretworked verandah, flanked by two dramatic forest pansies and paved courts in a low maintenance landscape. There's a water feature, built-in barbeque and then up to a raised grassed garden bordered by ornamental pears with even a discreet plot for veggies and herbs. Facing north and open to the sky enjoy all day sun in this family paradise.

Back inside there is a children's wing housing a family bathroom with a separate w.c., and three generous bedrooms, all with robes and full of light. Creature comforts include carpet for the bedrooms, two open fireplaces, reverse-cycle air-conditioning and ducted heating along with practicalities such as polished boards, abundant storage, ducted vacuum, irrigation for the garden from grey water and two huge water tanks, and a dual accessed garage past the tandem drive. Stunningly finished inside and out, this family haven is impeccably presented and abounding with Black Rock's most famous attributes.
