Some homes simply resonate on sight. With manicured gardens, detailed windows & crisp white pillars & shutters, this magnificent family home radiates timeless elegance & immense curb appeal. The formal section of the home offers a lounge room with double French doors & an impressive wall of white wood paneling that houses an OFP with a striking marble surround & hearth. This adjoins a dining room with sliding doors to an outside alfresco area with a timber lined roof & allows for an easy blend of indoor/outdoor entertaining. The kitchen is very workable in a classic U shape & offers good storage, a 900mm cooktop, a handy double wall oven & a SMEG dishwasher. It overlooks a family/meals area that offers access & views to the backyard that is an entertainer's delight. The large inground pool is surrounded by pretty gardens & is well fenced to separate it from the alfresco area that offers a built in plumbed gas BBQ. Downstairs in completed by a private office/study with its own entry making it perfect for a home based business, a laundry plus linen press with plenty of storage. Upstairs houses a light & airy master bedroom with a large bank of BIRs & a classic ensuite plus another 4 bedrooms, 3 of which also have BIRs. These are serviced by a central bathroom with a separate shower room. An unexpected surprise is the expansive rumpus room at the rear of this level. It has a kitchenette, a bathroom & superb views across the greenery & pool. It also offers its own external staircase & entry from the backyard allowing it to have many purposes. It could be used as a teenage retreat, a separate rental (as it can be closed off from the remainder of the level) or as another possibility for a home office/business. The home also has a remote access DLUG & there is additional land to the side that could easily be used for caravan or boat storage. In a prized location, at the end of a quiet court, you're within walking distance to quality kindergartens, primary schools, trains, buses (with access to the popular Box Hill High School on Route 733), parkland/reserves & a wonderful range of shops on the Blackburn South strip. A short drive Forest Hill Chase/Box Hill Shopping Centre & an array of desirable amenities. This is refined living at it's best!
