49 Hartwood Street, Kew East VIC 3102

Seamlessly blending period elegance with modern open plan living, this spectacular California Bungalow presents the best of both worlds in one of Kew East's finest pockets. A freshly painted faade framed by manicured gardens sets the tone for the front half of this stunning single-level rarity; which has been perfectly preserved in its original glory.

Featuring a formal entry and lounge room, relaxed informal lounge with open fireplace plus three bedrooms; the master containing a bay window, walk-in wardrobe and luxurious ensuite with walk-in shower. The second sleeping quarters houses two further bedrooms with sliding wardrobes and study nooks, along with a sleek central bathroom and separate toilet.

Beaming with wall-to-wall sunlight, the sprawling open living and dining domain is overlooked by a showpiece kitchen with copious high gloss cabinetry, 900mm SMEG stainless steel cooker and dishwasher, glass splashbacks and stone waterfall benches that double as a breakfast bar. Stacker doors provide the perfect integration between indoor and outdoor entertaining; with the covered/lit alfresco deck with bistro blinds and a bench seat allowing you to sit and watch over the kids in the solar heated swimming pool, whilst basking in the beauty of the private northern-oriented backyard. Enhanced with a magnificent mix of old and new, it hosts: high ceilings with decorative cornices and roses, picture rails, lead light windows and timber floorboards.

Complemented by contemporary comforts such as ducted heating, evaporative cooling, alarm system, generous linen press, laundry and lock-up shed storage plus a double carport with gated roll-through for a small boat, campervan or trailer.

Situated for lifestyle prestige, it accesses High Street trams, shops and cafes on foot. Only moments from Hayes Paddock, Stradbroke and Victoria Parks, Anniversary Outer Circle Trail, several primary schools and some of Melbourne's most elite secondary colleges including Xavier, Trinity Grammar, MLC, Ruyton and Genazzano FCJ.
