The inspired reimagining of 19 Glenferrie Avenue, a classic 2-storey residence along one of Myrtle Banks's many tranquil tree-lined thoroughfares, has created a welcoming family haven that's as luxurious as it is liveable. Embraced by verdant gardens and lush lawns, this gorgeous abode has been transformed by caring hands and minds into a serene sanctuary that exudes enduring elegance across a vast interior, rich in modern features and historic charm.
Polished timber floors span the 3 downstairs living areas, with grand open fireplaces in the 2 larger spaces - a family living room off the kitchen and the formal lounge - and all opening gloriously through French-style double doors onto a wrap-around rear verandah. Stylishly renovated and with all the mod-cons, the big kitchen caters easily to the adjacent tiled dining room that flows out to a European-style open-air enclosed courtyard - perfect for springtime alfresco gatherings.
Accommodations are generous and perfectly positioned. Downstairs, a supremely private master suite has bay window views to the front garden and an elegant bathroom all to itself with a divine clawfoot tub for bubbly bliss. Above, old meets new in 3 more bedrooms with modern hybrid timber floors, cosy nooks for wistful dreaming through picturesque paned windows, and soaring vaulted ceilings. One has an adjacent rumpus or storeroom, and all use the second full bathroom next to the laundry.
The surrounding grounds are equally majestic with blossoming hedges, established feature trees and cushioned play-friendly lawns, front and back - making it so easy to imagine the countless incredible days that lie ahead for your family here. There's carport parking for two along with a swag of extra off-street spots along the long driveway, handy for when the kids hit their late teen years.
Finally, the magic of Myrtle Bank is that this leafy enclave is only 6km from town, with vibrant suburban shopping precincts and a host of prestige private colleges mere minutes away, and excellent public transport connections to allow you to leave the car at home. So, make the next chapter in your family's story one to truly remember, in this magnificently reimagined historic home where the present warmly embraces the past.
