This lovely 3BR brick home is beautifully presented with period fixtures and fittings in every room and is deceptively spacious, inside and out, situated on a good size block in quiet court location. Entertain year round in the dining area, kitchen/meals area or outside under the superb pitched-roof gazebo, adjacent to a veranda and large patio. Located in an enviable, quiet location with lovely views over to Christmas Hills, it is an easy walk to Yarra Glen Primary School, and the nearby shops, parks and cafes.
Situated on the high side of the street, it has a pretty front garden with a brick-lined lawn, a stand of silver birch, a weeping cherry and garden beds either side of the steps leading up the front veranda, with a mass of roses and azaleas in every shade of pink. The driveway leads up to the remote controlled double garage and has a path that leads to the front steps and continues round to the side of the house, where a covered gate leads through to the patio.
The house is north-west facing, so the front veranda with its federation style fretwork is a lovely spot to sit and enjoy a drink while enjoying the views to the hills. The front door, with etched inlaid glass, opens into an open plan room running the full width of the house, with lounge to the left and dining area to the right. Both areas have floor to ceiling windows filling the room with natural light and ceiling roses with ornate chandelier light fittings. The lounge has a welcoming inbuilt gas fire with lovely timber mantle and there’s ducted heating as well as evaporative cooling for the warmer months.
Beyond the front rooms, a cool tiled hallway with ornate fretwork above, leads to the kitchen/meals area with two identical good size double bedrooms off to the left, both with inbuilt robes, ornate ceiling roses windows overlooking the side garden and beautiful period lights. To the right, the well-equipped federation style kitchen has a double sink with a large window overlooking the outdoor entertaining area and with views to the hills, a DeLonghi dishwasher, excellent storage including two pantry cupboards, a Westinghouse wall oven and separate grill and four ring gas cooktop. From the meals area, glass sliding doors open onto the side veranda with steps that lead down to the rear garden and the large pergola, and paved patio area, perfect for BBQing and entertaining whatever the weather.
A laundry, also with excellent storage cupboards accesses the side veranda, with access to the garden. At the end of the house away from the entertaining areas is the large master bedroom, with its angled doorway, large picture window, and a wall of BIRs, ceiling fan, and stunning ceiling rose and light. Adjacent to the master bedroom is the neat family bathroom which includes a separate bath, corner shower, large vanity with mirror, heat lamps and separate WC next door.
The rear garden, which is fully fenced and laid to lawn, is ideal for a young family and pets to play securely. Established citrus trees, rhododendrons and good hedging provide great privacy and a side patio boasts a water feature and is a lovely spot from which to sit and enjoy the garden.
This solid home offers well thought out features such as an underground water tank that feeds a reticulation system, two further water tanks, a good size garden shed, and excellent house security features.
On the quiet side of Yarra Glen and close to all amenities the town offers, this home is spacious, light and immaculately presented
