When the long term owners of this home set about renovating and extending they had a goal of crafting a timeless home with a classic feel, but what they didn't realize was they were also creating one of the most outstanding properties in the area. On around 1/4 acre the crisp off-white weatherboard facade with colonial windows makes an instant impression that gives it a picture postcard look. Inside, warm colours and great lighting complement the formal lounge, meals area and stunning Miele equipped kitchen before you step into the vast family/sunroom where a wall of windows open to reveal the colourful gardens behind. There's also a generous upstairs rumpus room that steps out the balcony with views of Melbourne's CBD. Accommodation is brilliant with 5 robed bedrooms including the upstairs master with walk in wardrobe and a renovated ensuite to complement the updated family bathroom downstairs. Extras include a study, ducted heating, refrigerated cooling downstairs, evaporative cooling upstairs, an alarm and a workshop with separate entry that could convert to an office, living area or additional accommodation. Outside you find single and tandem carports plus a stepped garden with 2 grassed landings and a large yard with shed and mountain views. Set high up in Ferntree Gully, the home is still within minutes of buses Ferntree Gully North Primary School while central Boronia shops and trains are also nearby.
