70 Southey Street, Elwood VIC 3184

Enhanced by a sophisticated renovation that earned it a place in Vogue Living (2012), this exceptional 3-bedroom plus study, 2-bathroom residence with dual street frontages is the ultimate family entertainer – and a home designed to impress at every turn.

Making an impactful first impression from Southey St with its timeless facade and newly renovated bluestone courtyard, the c1920 home opens to accommodation that is filled with warmth and light.

High ceilings and American oak floors lead past the first two bedrooms (with robes) and bright family bathroom to the rear living/dining zone and chic streamlined kitchen with quality AEG appliances and a fully integrated Liebherr fridge/freezer, along with stunning Michelangelo marble surfaces.

Banks of bi-fold doors extend the living out to a sunny rear courtyard, while yet another set can be thrown open in the rear double garage, creating one incredibly vast indoor-outdoor domain – perfect for a growing family as well as effortless, grand-scale entertaining.

Back inside, and giving parents both privacy & quietude, the upstairs retreat with dedicated study area and ensuited master bedroom is a sanctuary in every sense. High-quality hydronic heating and premium split system units are among the creature comforts, while a clever under-stair European laundry, security alarm, in-built speakers and outdoor kitchen with plumbed BBQ and fridge are all standout features.

With garage access to Tennyson St, and its ever-popular shops and cafes, the home is within moments of Clarke St Reserve & its fenced dog park, bus stops, Ripponlea station, cafes, bars and Brighton Rd trams. Trains are also easily accessible for a stress-free commute and he area's magnificent beaches are just moments away.
