8 Greenwoods Close, Dingley Village, Vic 3172

With good design and a great location, this remarkable retro will always be in fashion! Built to a superior standard in 1972 as an architect's own home, this expansive home adds up to today's best buy with up to four bedrooms, two bathrooms, three living areas and four car garaging.

Designed on a vast scale with large formal lounge and dining, an airy casual zone and a rumpus-room big enough to fit a billiard table. This "time-capsule" home features the best design elements of the era from a curvaceous breakfast-bench for the vibrant kitchen, to a big entertainers' bar for the lounge, to a buffet with built-in warmer for dining, and a plumbed in BBQ for the inviting al fresco deck.

Retro detailed with a fully-tiled ensuite beyond a robed dressing area, fourth bedroom fitted as home-office and bespoke cabinetry including robes, there's extensive timber panelling, arched pelmets for the curtains...even a beaten copper rangehood. Updated where it counts with prestige appliances for the kitchen, ducted heating, cooling, vacuum and an alarm, there's four-car garaging including an area converted as teenager retreat/man-cave. Even the location is a superior find - in an established court location within a minute of Village shopping and schools directly accessing major freeways and the new Dingley by-pass.
