Elegant accents of soft muted tones against rich hardwood floors; contemporary
embellishments transporting yesterday into today; and a surprise package of additional
studio-styled versatility, ALL serve to truly highlight and build on the substance and
character of this stately weatherboard home. The style of home you'll find in Balwyn or
Balwyn North ... with a much more substantial price-tag!
And while this prominent address represents outstanding proximity to Doncaster's
world-class amenities and Melbourne's CBD -
with park-and-ride AND freeway only 200metres away
- you'll find the quiet service-road access is very handy for your family and your
guests. Including the double carport, there's private off-street parking for 5-6
vehicles.
Originating in the late 1940s, this is now clearly a home with an eye on the future,
having been fully renovated and extended. Rising up behind a pretty picket fence and
picturesque landscape of standard Iceberg roses, its expansive floorplan is all about
"family" and "entertaining" - with "new
age" functionality afforded by a stunning self-contained studio under roofline
with independent access from the street. Absolutely ideal as a private work-from-home
environment; independence for teens, grandparents and house guests; OR a luxurious
games-room configuration with kitchenette, state-of-the-art bathroom and adjoining
bedroom.
Complementing its traditional leadlight features, French doors, open fireplace and timber
floors, the home is generously appointed with sizable formal AND casual living zones
that both spill into a semi-enclosed indoor-outdoor living room complete with trendy
transparent bistro-blinds and genuine polished timber floors. Also boasts substantial
renovated kitchen with European appliances, 3 modern bathrooms, 4 bedrooms and study (or
5 bedrooms), private newly landscaped backyard.
Mod cons include video intercom, ducted heating and evaporative cooling, 5000 litre
rainwater tank, double carport.
