35 Alexander Street, Kangaroo Flat VIC 3555

It is a testament to this home's endearing qualities that it has changed hands only twice since created as a modest brick veneer in 1965.

Since then, the much-loved home has not only been beautifully maintained, but has also had a total and tasteful internal makeover.

It offers three bedrooms, all with built-ins, two new bathrooms, a large living/dining and a modern kitchen/meals.

Ensuite bathrooms were not the norm in the 60s, and this one is larger than some built much later. Both bathrooms enjoy a coordinated modern finish with full-wall tiling, new vanities and shower recesses. The main bathroom boasts an inviting vintage-style freestanding claw foot bath ready for a relaxing soak.

The spacious L-shaped living room includes a fireplace with a cosy gas-log fire and a formal dining area.

The kitchen/meals conveniently placed beside the dining area also has direct access to a covered alfresco area. Kitchen upgrades include timber-topped cabinetry with glass splash backs, a new electric cooktop, a double oven and a Bosch dishwasher.

Other improvements include new laundry benches and cupboards, ducted heating and cooling, quality floor tiles, carpets and window coverings.

External areas reflect the same essence of neatness, where outdoor living/entertaining areas off the kitchen overlook the neat and leafy rear garden where native birdlife and glamorous parrots drop in for a morning snack from the bird feeder.

There's plenty of room on the 681m² block for the double carport with gated access to the secure backyard with a garage/workshop.

Location is another key element when it comes to this light-filled home. It's a short walk to all Kangaroo Flat amenities - the shopping strip, Gurri Wanyarra Wellbeing Centre, medical clinic, St Monica's School and the Railway Station for Melbourne commuters.

Whether you're looking for your first home, a downsizer, or just want a location change, this immaculately renovated home is ready and waiting. It blends the warmth and charm of a well-built brick home with today's modern chic updates.

But be quick – first to see will buy it!
