26 Bertram Street, Elsternwick VIC 3185

Space and flexibility are key at this character-rich period home, which has been enhanced by a light-filled and contemporary renovation to cater to the demands of modern family living.

Nestled on a significant 837sqm (approx.), the home is situated on a peaceful and low-traffic no-thru road with Gardenvale Park just footsteps away at the end of the street.

Accented by original features that hark back to its c1940s beginnings, its versatile floorplan includes up to five generous bedrooms - four of which boast floor-to-ceiling wardrobes (main with bonus dressing area/walk-in robe), while the fifth bedroom with pretty bay window could be used as a tranquil lounge or even a much-desired home office if required.

At the end of the hallway, the accommodation unfurls to an exceptional open plan living/dining zone and entertainer's kitchen, where soaring ceilings and vast expanses of glass bring in streams of natural sunlight and warmth. A custom media cabinet stars in the living area, while the gourmet stone kitchen is certain to impress avid hosts; it is equipped with a full suite of premium Miele appliances, including dual ovens.

Both bathrooms have the luxury of heated towel rails while the full laundry boasts copious amounts of storage. Wrapping up an extremely tempting family proposition are ducted heating/cooling, split system heating/cooling, sound system, security alarm, video intercom and secure parking behind auto gates. Both the heating & front gates can be operated via a phone app.

With the idyllic expanses of the park just metres away, this charming home is perfectly positioned for families of all ages and stages. Leading schools are within easy reach, as are public transport options with Gardenvale train station, Martin Street cafes and shops, Glenhuntly Road shopping destinations and Nepean Highway for a stress-free commute.
