In terms of transformations, this one will absolutely blow you away. Completely reinvented from the inside out by some very clever, creative owners, this impressive artisan residence is an artful escape you'll love returning home to-day after day, year after year.
You'll feel it as soon as you step in off the side-street entry into the tranquil front courtyard - you're instantly transported somewhere else. Bi-fold doors and windows have been installed across the front and rear to open it all up and enhance the indoor-to-outdoor flow - and boy, has it done its job!
The home: it's been expanded, pushed out, opened and adjusted internally to maximise each and every space - and although the extension itself has been minimal, the home is somehow SO much bigger both inside and out.
The natural light is abundant, maximised by no less than 4 Velux vaulted skylights on the upper level, and the lower level is reminiscent of a sleek showroom or inner-urban art gallery. A vast, airy space that represents minimalism done right by allowing your art, decor and furniture collection to speak for itself - no matter your style, quirk or colour palette. Even the custom-built entertainment unit has been recessed into the wall.
Combining three generous bedrooms with robes, the 2nd and 3rd under the pitched ceiling with Velux skylights and double privacy/block-out blinds. The master suite with a walk-in robe, and ensuite access to the 2-way designer bathroom with Velux skylight and stylish matte-black fittings, plus a downstairs powder room & laundry.
The extension has made way for an additional living space upstairs with a built-in storage unit for the kids' toys - PLUS a great attic storage space accessible by a pull-down ladder.
Gorgeous natural timber floorboards line underfoot through the ground level, effortlessly flowing through the expansive living and dining into the entertainer's kitchen with high-end cooking appliances and dishwasher, stone benches, boundless storage and white-marble splashback.
Foodies and entertainers will definitely be in their element in this ultimate indoor-outdoor setting, complete with bi-fold servery windows opening the space up to a sit-up bar in a fabulous, tropical-garden courtyard amongst mature palms, hardy succulents and leafy creepers. No doubt the worthy setting of many great times amongst friends and family.
Just a moments' stroll to the popular Thrift Park Shopping and a few minutes more to the beach, the Bay Trail, Mentone Village shopping, dining and cafe culture, and the new underground train station. Mentone's elite schooling options including Mentone and Mentone Girls Grammar schools, Kilbreda, St Bede's - and prized zoning for Mentone Primary and Mentone Girls' and Parkdale Secondary Colleges. This is THE ONE!
Potential Rent: $475-$525 per week.
