Abounded by lush, manicured native gardens on a fantastically sized allotment of 1494sqm (approx.), this lovely, circa 1950's weatherboard home melds picturesquely with its idyllically leafy, yet superbly convenient surroundings providing a lifestyle of complete tranquillity.
Set beyond olive green and cream picket fencing, with a wide matching wrap around verandah and an inviting arbor gate with a charming, hanging plate 'Girrahween', naming the home 'place of flowers'; the immediate sense of charisma and welcome is apparent.
Beautifully appointed in a timelessly appealing decor with period detailing such as lofty ceilings with decorative cornice, ornamental light fittings and ceiling roses, along with picture rails and ornate grilles, accentuating the appeal further, this instantly engaging residence is completely enchanting.
Honey toned hardwood floors lead the way down to the rear of the home highlighting a considerable living space also enjoying French doors opening to a sizeable covered outdoor entertainer's domain. Ideally and efficiently integrating, the family sized timber kitchen is replete with plentiful cabinetry and quality stainless-steel appliances including a Bosch dishwasher.
Furthermore, an immense master bedroom is enhanced with a cosy open fireplace and walk-through robing to a private bathroom; while a large Victorian style bathroom boasts a freestanding claw foot bathtub with overhead shower and exposed brass fittings, servicing the two further bedrooms - all newly carpeted including a separate study nook.
Further admirable highlights include gas ducted heating, reverse cycle air-conditioners to lounge and master, ceiling fans, classic light switches, attic storage with fold down ladder, huge rear garden with matching cubby house, 9000lt water tanks, a vast amount of secure driveway parking and a double car/trailer/boat port with high clearance.
Additionally, an under home garage or workshop, and huge storage area will also be appreciated.
Exceptionally well positioned with high walkability appeal to buses, Croydon Primary and Secondary Schools, McAdam Square Shopping Centre and central Croydon (shops, cafes, railway station), and an expedient proximity to prestigious surrounding schools (Luther College, Yarra Valley and Tintern Grammars), as well as Ringwood, Eastland Shopping Centre, EastLink and renowned Yarra Valley experiences.
