1 Thornhill Drive, Forest Hill VIC 3131

Distinguished by sweeping frontage at the top end of Thornhill Dve, the European craftsmanship of this grand classic offers the enduring appeal of Italian influence. Designed to enhance light and district views, the symbolic lion on the front door and the al fresco water feature surrounds you with power and protection close to Forest Hill Chase, Nunawading station and Blackburn Lake Primary.
As only the 2nd long standing owners since the original builder sold his masterpiece, the 806sqms (approx.) address has been tightly held and privately secured behind a gated entry.
Beyond its tiled verandah and double carport, the home welcomes you with stunning space and abundant light into its free-flowing living and dining rooms.
A convenient ground floor position for the king-sized master bedroom overlooks the gardens through a stunning picture window, complete with a spa bathroom ensuite with double basins and a frosted glass shower.
Upstairs, the huge top floor rumpus makes the perfect children's play space with panoramic district views, and enough space to consider reconfiguring to add an extra bedroom serviced by a modern bathroom. There's even a clever room for mahjong and tea, or as a quiet study corner for students.
Outside, the north-east garden features a European style paved patio behind a brick wall, a tranquil water feature, citrus trees and roses - ideal for families wanting a beautiful garden that's also low maintenance.
Ducted central heating, updated kitchen appliances, solar panels, and a terracotta roof complete the feature list.
The property's beautiful attributes are hidden away from street view, so you'll have to step inside to fully appreciate this Euro lifestyle offering, on the fringe of shops, schools, parks and transport connections including the Smartbus on Springvale Rd from Chelsea to Airport West, and the tram to Deakin Uni and the city.
