552 Heidelberg-Kinglake Road, Wattle Glen VIC 3096

Nestled behind hedges and set back from the road for peace and privacy, this engaging, evocative century old home on a generous 1021 m2 allotment (approx) offers period charm, modern functionality and a second to none position. Just moments from the station and around the corner from the general store and school, it enjoys all the advantages of both Hurstbridge and Diamond Creek a few minutes away. This exceptional convenience complements the "feel good" factor and instant appeal of an interior sympathetically revitalised to suit the era, while introducing subdued on trend tones and fabulous family spaces. The front of the house has been cleverly configured. Introducing a private sitting area, central to two bedrooms, contemporary bathroom and a large studio, versatile enough to work as a home office, living area or an extra bedroom, it could be zoned off if desired. It precedes a smart open plan, solid timber kitchen with an impressive Falcon range and overlooking an inviting living/ dining zone will have you bringing back the traditional Sunday roast. Wrapping around, and enjoy access to a vine covered central alfresco area that leads to a rambling cottage garden, are the main bedroom with its new ensuite and fitted walk in robe, and a fitted library that opens to a refined living room. Complete with wood fire heater and period enhancements, it's a time capsule of yesterday and the perfect spot to relax and unwind from the hustle and hassle of today! With endearing extras including high ceilings, internal timber lining, handcrafted leadlight windows and doors, double garage with internal access and contemporary heating and cooling options, this is an extraordinary lifestyle opportunity.
