17 Illawarra Road, Balwyn North VIC 3104

Only a few short steps from the gates of locally zoned Balwyn High School and Balwyn North Primary, families will celebrate spectacular living within this contemporary five bedroom, three bathroom residence.

Enjoying a high-side-of-the-road position, a fashionably rendered façade provides a perfect introduction to the fully and luxuriously renovated interiors. Relax quietly in the elegant lounge room with leadlight windows or head out to the versatile studio/retreat/gym to game or watch movies. In between, the massive open-plan dining/family room is a dream for those who love to host large-scale gatherings. With a sleek white stone kitchen equipped with AEG appliances including induction cooking at one end, spend wintertime by the crackling open fireplace. In summer, push back the bi-folds and entertain alfresco on the covered deck or under the vine-laden pavilion.

Featuring a guest bedroom with a fully-tiled stone ensuite, there's a free-standing tub in the luxe bathroom and the master bedroom boasts two walk-in robes and a dual-vanity ensuite.

Impressive from end to end, highlights include a powder room, multi-zone central heating/air-conditioning, security, a raised vegetable garden, and auto gates to a carport and two-car off-street parking.

In a leafy parkland pocket just metres from Hislop Reserve, Gordon Barnard Reserve, Macleay Park, the tennis club and Boroondara Sports Complex, walk to village cafes and the tram bound for Kew Junction, leading private schools and the city.
