Beyond the picket fence, under twin stacked chimneys, be enchanted by the elegance of this beautiful, double-fronted residence. Still proudly boasting a traditional façade of pitched gables, timber finials and intricate fretwork - this home is steeped in history and sophistication.
In keeping with the exterior, the interior is rich with decor distinctive of this era - high ceilings, ornamental roses, cornices and architraves. Off the central hallway, the original accommodation has been adapted to offer a peaceful sitting room, front study and two large bedrooms (BIRs) plus ensuite & WIRs to the master. Each of these four rooms feature original fireplaces complete with shining tiled hearths.
At the rear of the home an astoundingly beautiful yet contemporary living area burgeons from the confines of the hallway - with rich ebony floors and a multitude of windows, this space has a warm, welcoming energy. From here, throw open the French doors to a broad deck which overlooks the substantial gardens and magnificent weeping willow. The sparkling new white kitchen has the luxury of thick caesarstone benches and glass splashbacks. A central bathroom and laundry service the downstairs accommodation.
The upper level has a further three bedrooms, bathroom and versatile study or retreat. High attic-style ceilings and an abundance of windows provide a great sense of space and light. Each one of these rooms is generously fitted with its own split system. The property also offers ducted heating and ample parking.
Situated within easy reach of Monash University, Chadstone Shopping Centre, schools and transport, this five bedroom + study family home represents a perfect blend of nostalgia and modernity.
