Set upon a private garden behind automatic gates, this quality tumbled brick home is flexible in layout and conveniently located in a quiet location. Just ten minutes' walk to Belgrave main street and train station, two doors from Mater Christi College, and an easy drive to other local schools and Wellington Road, this home is ideal for commuting via public transport or road, and walking distance to much of what a family needs. The flexible layout means that the office / bedroom can be used as either, with a study / library which could similarly be used as a nursery.
Enter via the verandah through the welcoming leadlight front door to the foyer. Through the arched doorway, soaring cedar ceilings frame the expansive L shaped living and dining space, providing beautiful views to the garden and beyond through bay windows. The brick feature wall with cosy open fireplace with damper adds to the ambience. The dining area is directly accessible to the kitchen. The kitchen provides a breakfast bar style seating area, Miele dishwasher, a bay window with more garden views, wall oven, stove top, plenty of cabinet space and a casual meals area.
The office / bedroom provides views through floor to ceiling windows. The Tasmanian Oak cabinetry and shelving are perfect for an office, or you can easily convert this into a bedroom. Further down the hall there are two bedrooms of similar proportions, also with floor to ceiling windows, one with built-in robes and the other with two walk-in robes. The master bedroom has a bay window, ceiling fan, large walk-in robe and ensuite. A library /study is perfect for curling up with a good book, perfect for getting away from it all.
Gas ducted heating keeps this home warm and cosy through winter. Fly screens on all opening windows and security fly screen doors on the two main entrance doors (not pictured) ensure breezes throughout summer. The 3.975 kW Solar system with 15 panels and new inverter provide energy savings. There is a bonus of an alarm system. There is a single carport and space for another car on the driveway.
The outdoor patio off the kitchen is part covered, with the other part open, awaiting the wisteria to spring to life to cover the arbor once again. The garden is currently in winter mode, pruned back and ready for spring to bring forth all the stunning colour that this garden delivers throughout the year – roses, azaleas, camellias, wisteria, a multitude of bulbs and the signature weeping cherry tree, with pink blossoms in late winter, lush green in spring, and a rainbow of colour in Autumn. Make your way around the garden down stone steps and a winding path under arbors covered in roses, to the top of the garden where you can pick lemons and potentially grow some vegies in the raised garden bed. A roller-door shed for garden tools and a clothesline fit neatly at the back of the home.
With ideal location and quality throughout, this home won't last long, so make sure you get to an inspection!
