Elegantly Edwardian yet magnificently modern, this three-bedroom is an enchanting family sanctuary amid a flourishing garden setting. Enveloped by tuck-pointed solid brick, the home effortlessly deters the hustle and bustle of daily life, providing a serene retreat that is full of character and comfort.
Beyond a return verandah, the home opens to a voluminous interior where soaring 11-foot (approx.) ceilings hang high above bold hardwood floors. An enticing contrast of past and present cohabits the rooms, scattered with ornate leadlights, plantation shutters, cast-iron fireplaces and striking pendant lights.
The heart of the home is an elegant lounge room, offering space to gather family and friends beside a gas fireplace, adjoining a commodious dining room for seamless entertaining. Draped in Carrara marble, the kitchen exudes finesse and functionality, providing a freestanding Smeg stove and a Miele integrated dishwasher among abundant storage, serving casual meals and snacks over a central island breakfast bar.
Extending outdoors, the spacious yard is a tranquil retreat for quiet enjoyment or lively gatherings, hosting alfresco dining on a sunny brick patio amid a plethora of blooms.
Each bedroom is fitted with mirrored robes, serviced by a sparkling ensuite to the main bedroom, and a sumptuous family bathroom with marble and stone highlights, including an alluring soaker tub to unwind at day’s end.
Finished by a large European laundry, off-street parking for two cars behind motorised gates, and a substantial garden shed, the home offers the comforts of modern living in a vibrant lifestyle location. Only 150 footsteps from Kew Junction’s indulgent eateries, boutique retailers, and city-bound trams, the home is positioned among Melbourne’s esteemed private schools and Yarra River recreation.
