SOLD by Jellis Craig. Steeped in history, this gorgeous home c1902 started its life as the Station Master’s residence many years ago when the line was extended from Heidelberg to Eltham. It was moved in the 1980s to its current location, nestled amongst the trees in a quiet no-through road. Inside, the charm and romance of the era remain intact, enhanced by towering 14ft ceilings, high skirting boards and eye-catching Baltic pine floors that adorn much of the interior.
Enjoy the warmth of the crackling open fire in the impressive open plan living and dining room, complemented by a gourmet kitchen boasting a stone breakfast bar, high-end Wolf appliances; including twin ovens (convection & convection/microwave), a warming drawer, gas cooktop and a Miele integrated dishwasher.
Accommodation includes the bright and spacious master bedroom enhanced by an open fire and a private balcony to sit outside and enjoy the serenity, paired with two additional robed bedrooms and a stylish family bathroom featuring an oversized rain shower and relaxing bathtub. Outdoors, the leafy backyard offers a great place to relax and entertain, featuring a large alfresco deck and inground pool, leading to a garden studio constructed by Hamish Knox (son of master architect Alistair Knox) - providing additional space for teenagers, an artists’ studio or a great work-from-home alternative.
Amongst the highlights are ducted heating, evaporative cooling, plantation shutters, veggie garden, solar electricity, under house storage and endless off-street parking. Surrounded by mature trees and native birdlife, you could be forgiven for thinking you were somewhere in the country, yet it’s only a few minutes to the centre of Eltham with lively shops, cafes and a train station, local parks, leisure facilities and walking trails, reputable schools (zoned for Eltham East Primary and Eltham High).
