3 The Boulevard, Heathmont, Vic 3135

Proudly presenting this distinctive, circa-1957 white-brick residence, much-loved by just the one family. This fabulous house was designed by respected architect Neville Gunnis in 1957 to be a local contemporary icon. It was built by one of the area's most prominent builders George Orgill in Heathmont's most prestigious enclave.

In what was an innovative time in building for architects to utilise alternative materials and designs - the striking tessellated stone feature wall on the front facade the perfect example; archetypal features of this wonderful period home also include a generous use of floor-to-ceiling windows making the most of the lush beauty outdoors and bringing in stunning treetop views to the Dandenong Ranges; and the open layout apparent in both a large family zone and a huge formal lounge/dining further enhanced by an ambient open fireplace, 100% wool carpet and a bespoke wall of storage with servery opening to the updated, family-sized 'Country-style' kitchen.

In addition, the vintage bathroom is ideally segregated and boasts the original 'retro' tiling to both the separate shower-and-bath rooms with a central vanity and separate toilet amply servicing the two comfortable bedrooms with built-in robes (the second with built-in desk and shelving plus access to gardens) and a private study. The huge master bedroom is further complemented with a walk-in robe and full ensuite.

Step outside and discover the homes' beautifully secluded and tranquil gardens affording a large sun-deck perfect for alfresco dining, a sparkling self-cleaning inground pool, and professional landscaping providing a most idyllic outdoor retreat.

Additional benefits include; gas ducted heating, reverse-cycle air-conditioner, high ceilings, hardwood floors, abundant storage, separate laundry with original double trough, water tanks, big shed/powered workshop plus off-street parking, double carport and remote garage/workshop.
