Set high on an elevated allotment capturing magnificent north-easterly views across to Mt Saint Leonard, Healesville, this simply stunning, architecturally-designed family home of the 1960s was based on the same principles still important today, of abundant natural light, spacious internal proportions, and relaxed outdoor living. Updated to contain the essential luxuries of our modern lifestyle, this home bestows fulfillment and sanctuary in a fabulous locale, close to recreation, shopping, schools and transport.
Cocooned in the year-round comfort of solid-brick construction, the home bathes in the soothing views through panoramic windows in every room. Zoned living spaces provide privacy, including adjoining formal lounge and dining rooms with bar, and an open plan family and meals area smothered in Spotted Gum flooring, enjoying a terrazzo marble terrace in the sun. A stylish timber kitchen is central to both dining areas, offering abundant intelligent-storage and a walk-in pantry, and a full-appointment of appliances.
A sublime setting of landscaped, low-maintenance gardens offers tranquil alfresco enjoyment, providing a barbecue patio amid a plethora of delicious fruit trees including peaches, figs, persimmons and almonds.
The expansive three-bedroom layout offers generous robed accommodation, sharing a sparkling modern family bathroom, plus a two-way ensuite to service alfresco entertainment to one of the rooms. Be pampered by modern comforts, including ducted heating, split system air-conditioning (family room), ducted vacuum, front gate intercom, 1,100L rainwater tank, 1.5kW solar electricity, and an oversized remote double garage providing additional rooms for study or cellar, and workshop or storage.
An idyllic family lifestyle in peaceful, relaxing surrounds, this fabulous home is just minutes from the verdant recreation at the Yarra River and Westerfolds Park, within walking distance to Bulleen Plaza, city-bound buses, and the shopping-loop bus to Westfield Doncaster and The Pines, and within easy reach of Heidelberg station and esteemed public and private schools.
