6 Maralee Place, Doncaster, Vic 3108

You'd be right in thinking you'll never see a house like this again, because you won't. Renovated by Bent Architecture into the architectural delight it is today, this single-level, linear-style five-bedroom home has been specifically crafted for thoughtful family living.

As you'd expect, functional and practical living forms the cornerstone of this low maintenance family haven, showcasing breathtaking architectural elements unique to itself and treasured by anyone who's lucky enough to call this place home.

Presented with a captivating entrance with glass lobby, it's a bold first impression that successfully evokes the language of 1970s houses and sets the tone for the level of architectural innovation inside this sun-kissed home.

A vast open-plan living area with an open fireplace greets your arrival beyond the front door, where a new pelmet that runs along the perimeter of the interior strikes a crisp line against the rough texture of the exposed brick walls. Large windows, which includes a generous corner window with a day-bed, filters abundant natural light into the home whilst also strengthening its connection with the landscaped exterior.

Stunning raked ceilings with exposed timber beams accentuate height and space throughout, while a bright central meals/kitchen area enjoys the lifestyle advantage of accessing the home's two contemporary outdoor entertaining areas - one of which links with the private saltwater-chlorinated swimming pool.

Marvel at the spacious character of the rear family living, fitted with a built-in desk and shelving for the home office worker or studious pupil, and admire the successful separation between the master bedroom (full-length built in robes and bright ensuite) and four children's bedrooms, which are serviced by a contemporary family bathroom.

Featuring hydronic heating and generous off-street parking, this architectural icon also boasts a five-star address that's within walking distance of Macedon Square shops, bus transport, Manningham Medical Centre, local schools and Westfield Shoppingtown.
