Set in established cared-for gardens within a stroll of St Leonard's and Haileybury Colleges, this solid brick 3 bedroom Californian Bungalow has been renovated and extended to merge period elegance with contemporary refinements and comforts. Elegant original rooms of generous proportions have been retained and are now complemented by the addition of an open plan living domain which opens to a north facing rear garden.

Set on 700sqm (7,535sqft) approx with an attractive facade and charming front verandah, the light-filled home comprises a lovely entry with arched fretwork, formal lounge with bay window and gas space heater, central dining room with parquetry floor and open fire place, an open plan living area with kitchen and family spaces that includes a feature open fire, three bedrooms with built in robes, one with ensuite, central bathroom and laundry. The well designed kitchen has European appliances, tiled splashbacks and loads of bench space...ideal for entertaining! Other features include ornate ceilings, leadlight windows in the original rooms, ducted heating, a large rear garden with room to possibly further extend later (even easy access for a pool), plus double garage.

Ideally situated in a quiet, leafy street, you can walk to local shops and be close to both Church and Hampton Street shopping centres, highly regarded primary and secondary schools, transport, parks and Brighton Golf Course.
