61 Chirnside Drive, Chirnside Park VIC 3116

Available for the first time since being built 50 years ago, this generous and elevated brick residence on a spacious 1040m2 has been lovingly maintained and updated by the one family over the years. If the walls could talk, they would tell you of a time when Chirnside Park was far from the thriving and leafy locale it is today rich with open green spaces, shopping centres, quality schools, cinemas and a country club. With all five children now having flown the coop with great grandchildren on the way, the time is ripe for this grand home to begin a new chapter with new custodians ready to make memories.

The home showcases two spacious living areas – a must for big families who sometimes need to spread out and do their own thing. Ceiling roses and gleaming polished floors are a feature with classic French doors separating the comfortable lounge/dining with cosy gas log fire and the family room with the elegant kitchen well equipped with stone-look benches and stainless-steel appliances including dishwasher. This zone flows effortlessly out to a covered alfresco zone – a perfect spot to entertain or enjoy a morning cuppa in the sunshine.

The accommodation is positioned in two separate wings with two bedrooms at the rear accessed via a feature barn door and three at the front of the home including a master which enjoys elevated views and if you’re lucky you can enjoy breakfast in bed watching the majestic hot air balloons floating their way from the valley. All bedrooms are double in size and are serviced by two bathrooms beautifully renovated with floor to ceiling tiles and luxurious rainhead showers.

Outdoors a decked area off the alfresco zone overlooks blooming gardens rich with colour and variety where you can follow the paved pathway to a tiered lawn with flourishing lemon, orange and grapefruit trees. Fully fenced for kids and pets to safely enjoy there is also access to the double remote garage.

Additional highlights include a spacious laundry, gas ducted heating and evaporative cooling for seasonal comfort.
