THE DEAL
A lifestyle oasis promising unbridled luxury for the largest of families, this period gem turned modern showpiece represents the pinnacle of inner-northern living.
With the advantage of side lane access and secure parking for several cars off-street, the home sits behind lush greenery and a façade radiating old-world charm. Inside, a comprehensive revamp fuses design chic and veteran craftsmanship, with a wide hallway winding to reach hospitality spaces at rear. Ribbons of Italian marble augment the upmarket feel of a gourmet kitchen, with a fluted, curved island a striking centrepiece among abundant soft-close cabinetry, a butler’s pantry, fully integrated dishwasher, and 900mm Electrolux oven/induction cooktop. Living and dining zones flow through stacker glass to make indoor-outdoor entertaining a breeze, with a gas and hot/cold water-plumbed alfresco brilliant for barbecues under blue skies.
Heightening appeal beyond compare, a driveway-accessed studio with a luxe bathroom, robe-lined bedroom, and lounge/office space complements the extensive accommodation in the main home, where four large bedrooms are joined by walk-in and built-in robes, an ensuite to master, and lavish central bathroom with a soaker tub. Other highlights include era-typical leadlight windows and ceiling rosettes, Italian marble and dual basins to bathrooms, added marble to a fitted study station, 100% nylon looped carpets, ducted heating/refrigerated cooling, CCTV, a guest-room veranda, alarm, full-size laundry, backyard shed, and living-room gas fire for cosy nights come wintertime.
With newly revamped Garrong Park only a handful of doors away, placement just steps from Moreland and Anstey Stations, the 6 and 19 tram, zoned Merri Bek Primary, and the day-and-night buzz of Sydney Road means a car is rarely needed.
SEALS THE DEAL
The expansive living/dining area’s soaring, raked ceiling makes room for highlight and clerestory windows, creating a stunning sense of space and bathing the area in all-day natural light.
