23 Gwendoline Avenue, Bentleigh, Vic 3204

Solid-brick, spacious and so beautifully gracious, this is exactly the sort of period beauty you've come to expect of this prized address. Set amongst the fine renovations of this period-perfect streetscape, this early Californian Bungalow offers a classic three bedroom floorplan with every period detail intact - from a sweeping bay-window, to elaborate ceilings, to divine diamond-pane leadlight.

Separate lounge and dining rooms open up to a rich Blackwood kitchen with stainless-steel Blanco cooktop, while an all-weather al fresco area beneath a high-gabled canopy opens up to around 6120sqft/568sqm of north-westerly oriented gardens.

Centrally heated and upgraded with security features including video-surveillance and an alarm, this quality home even accommodates outside with a two-car garage plus parking on a long drive. Just a few blocks from Centre Rd with local shopping close and the bus to the station and strips even closer, this is solid period beauty with a sought-after address.
