7/5-7 Chandler Highway, Alphington VIC 3078

There’s a subtle Parisian air to this lovingly updated three-bedroom Yarra Palms townhouse in Alphington, encompassing dual living domains and private alfresco patio mere steps to many
soon-to-be-open holistic urban amenities – art and design, health and wellness, food and entertainment – from the self-dubbed World’s Most Livable Suburb, YarraBend.

Situated within a quiet community of its own, its interiors framed by large French windows and New South Wales spotted gum floors, this home is afforded an impressive serenity in spite of its proximity to the main road; you’d never know Chandler Hwy was less than 100 metres away.

The kitchen serves up contemporary plywood-like cabinetry combined with stainless steel appliances and ample bench space and storage, seamlessly connecting to the dual living areas and leafy alfresco patio.

Upstairs the three robed bedrooms, including one with a cosy wrought-iron balcony (very a la Paris), lead off a landing that lends itself beautifully to a home office, reading nook or separate retreat.

Ducted heating and evaporative cooling, laundry, powder room and secure single-car garage offer yet another layer of covetable features.

Sharing the suburban boundaries of Fairfield and YarraBend, you’re spoilt for choice when it comes to local amenities. You’ll have your pick of parklands, all within walking distance, including the renowned Fairfield Boathouse; Station Street and YarraBend shops will easily satisfy your food, retail and wellness cravings, the latter set to feature a Fitness First, Readings Cinema and Coles supermarket; and transport comes in the form of Fairfield and Alphington train stations, and the Eastern Freeway is mere moments by car.
