This immaculate double-brick home on an elevated easy-care corner block has been a much loved family home since it was built and is ideally suited to couples and families in search of a secure, peaceful and nurturing lifestyle. As it isn't a thoroughfare, children can play safely on the generous sweep of lawn out front and in neighbouring cul-de-sacs, with more space for cricket and footy at the Monastery oval just a hop, skip and jump away. You can also walk or cycle to local schools including Mercedes and Seymour colleges, be in the city in 10 and, for shopping, take your pick of Burnside Village, Mitcham Square and the Arkaba Centre.
Inside, sun-soaked living spaces with generous bay windows embrace the home's true north aspect and lush green outlooks centred on a magnificent Camphor Laurel that grows in splendour with each passing season. Warm in winter, yet cool in summer with fresh gully breezes, there is seldom need for the ducted reverse-cycle air conditioning.
The floor plan has an easy flow with sliding doors connecting the hallway with elegant lounge and dining spaces, arriving in a painted timber kitchen with plenty of storage and European appliances. You'll love the way the three double bedrooms, including spacious master with massive walk-in robe and fully-tiled ensuite, are spread out for maximum peace and privacy, with the full main bathroom and separate toilet ideally positioned for sharing.
Parties have been a theme over the years with magical garage access to an Aladdin's Cave of alfresco terrace entertaining and self-contained studio leisure. Complete with bar/kitchen, ensuite, walk-in storage area and the year-round comfort of ducted reverse-cycle air conditioning, it's a fantastic space that can be used in so many ways - rumpus, teen retreat, home office, guest house or rental opportunity.
Neutrally decorated and freshly carpeted to please; this lovely home will shape a way of life and self-expression that few can. Highly recommended!
