32 Marcus Street, Mount Evelyn, Vic 3796

Cutting an imposing figure from its elevated street position, this private and peaceful property is a picture of family living in a picturesque community.

Set back on an elevated block and brought well into the 21st century the fully renovated Americana style weather board home is a clever combination of contemporary style and practicality.

Entering via a curved driveway and up the stairs, a magnificent covered front deck with extended views to the surrounding bushland is the perfect vantage point to take in the afternoon sun, enjoy cocktails with friends or put on a Sunday barbecue for the family.

Inside wooden floorboards and high angled ceilings immediately catch the eye in a spacious front living area that also features a Coonara wood heater, split-system air conditioner and an abundance of glass that takes advantage of the natural light enjoyed with this home.

The contemporary kitchen has had a modern upgrade, featuring stainless steel gas cooking, oven and range hood, light coloured cupboards and bench tops, a double pantry and classy glass splash back.

This fantastic central hub overlooks a second living space which provides central access to all parts of the home.

Accommodation is housed in three bedrooms all with built-in robes, the main bedroom located at the front of the home also including a new ensuite bathroom with double shower, vanity and feature vintage claw bath.

A matching second bathroom also has a double shower and vanity, but this time features a built-in corner spa bath.

The laundry blends with the modern tones throughout the home while a connection to the outdoors comes via a covered verandah that works its way around to the back of the property.

The kids and pets will love the backyard space which incorporates a tiered lawn area, landscaped gardens and plenty of extra parking for the cars, boat or caravan.

There are a number of quality additions including gas ducted heating, new ceiling fans and light fittings, indoor and outdoor storage options, new paintwork throughout, new carpets, downlights and a large double carport underneath the home.

In your very own tranquil bush setting, yet with great connection to York Road, Maroondah Highway and Eastlink and with all the hard work already done for you, you'd be hard pressed to find a better combination of modern comfort and a peaceful lifestyle.
