Romance is in the air! You'll fall in love at first sight when you see the sheer perfection of this immaculately presented home which has been renovated to a high standard. These days, the period prettiness of the exterior hides the heart of a thoroughly contemporary temptress. What a magical blend of the old and the new! Crisp white paintwork, lime-washed Baltic pine floorboards in the entrance hall, and an on-trend barn door closing off the living area from the front rooms are the introduction to a home of good taste and sophisticated style. The master bedroom at the front of the home has an ensuite with clawfoot bath, while bedroom 2, also well proportioned, has a wall of built-in wardrobes. Bedroom 3 has a gas heater, and french doors to the north-facing rear garden. The family bathroom oozes contemporary chic, a characteristic it shares with the kitchen where the stone bench has a waterfall drop and exactly matches the colour of the cabinetry. There are loads of drawers, an induction cooktop, a Bosch dishwasher, a blackboard-covered door to the pantry, and iron-framed windows allowing the light to stream in from the paved and private, expansive back garden allowing extensive lifestyle opportunities. Open to the kitchen is the dining area and the living room with sleek gas log fire, vaulted ceiling with exposed beams, and window seat in the box bay window. Also included is ducted evaporative cooling, Euro laundry, and off-street parking. Situated on an allotment of approx 816sqm (extend/redevelop STCA), this property is in one of the area's most sought after streets, on the bus route close to reserves, recreation and cosmopolitan Koornang Road., and with quick access to Chadstone and to Monash University (Clayton and Caulfield).
