8 Yanina Court, Glen Waverley, Vic 3150

This rare find, never before on the market, combines the craftsmanship of renowned area builder Mitch Mackevicius with extensive owner upgrades, including higher ceilings, expansive windows, wider verandahs, abundant storage and the distinctive white façade. Located on a prestigious corner allotment, the house features huge, open-plan, formal living and dining areas adjoining a separate, very large open-plan kitchen and informal living area. All share a bright, easterly aspect with wrap-around slate verandahs and 180 degree views of the Dandenong Ranges. The large kitchen, which also overlooks the private, wisteria-framed rear garden, includes a new gas cook-top, electric oven, Miele exhaust, and double-drawer dishwasher, all in stainless steel. The north-facing bedroom wing comprises the master with walk-through his-and-hers robes and ensuite, five further bedrooms (appropriate for other uses as desired) and a central, family bathroom with a walk-in shower and dressing area, bathroom with vanity, separate toilet and guest/second vanity area. Downstairs - which also offers spectacular views - is a large formal entry hall and family room with separate side entry, cellar, storage and powder room, equally ideal for use as a home office or in-law/guest suite. The adjacent double garage includes two storage rooms, one currently in use as an exercise room. The house also offers scope for value addition and personalization (e.g. beneath the carpet the main floor has unfinished hardwood floors throughout). The property is located within five minutes of the M1 (Southeastern) and M3 (Eastlink) freeways, the Glen and Brandon Park shopping centres, the Glen Waverley train station and Kingsway restaurant and cinema precinct, Jells Park and the eastern campuses of Caulfield Grammar and Wesley College. It is also located within 15 minutes of Chadstone shopping centre and Monash University and Medical Centre, and in addition to the train-line is accessible by multiple bus routes.
