40 Lexia Street

Ashburton VIC 3147

Renovated and extended with the utmost of respect for its original Art Deco character, this particularly refined and elegant five-to-six bedroom family home is just a short walk from all the vibrancy of High Streets shopping and caf strip. Set in one of the areas most coveted tree-lined streets, this is an impressive family entertainer, within easy reach also of parkland and city-bound transport. Crafted for relaxed family living and entertaining with stone benches and stainless-steel appliances, the kitchen / dining / living extends outdoors to a vast, partly undercover deck where built-in bench seating overlooks a generous backyard. Resplendent under finely detailed ceilings, with dappled Deco plasterwork as well as both internal and external leadlight windows, the home also reveals a formal lounge and a dining room, each of which is organised around traditional fireplaces that can readily be reinstated. Upstairs, a recently renovated bathroom is superbly styled whilst the downstairs bathroom is also pristine and four of the bedrooms have been completed with built-in robe storage. Further highlights of this character-rich residence include a double lock-up garage with driveway parking for at least another three vehicles, plus there is a powder room, a laundry, ducted heating and split system air conditioning. Just a leisurely walk from all the cafes and shops of High Street, this is a coveted family pocket near Gardiners Creek parkland, local buses and trains from both Alamein and Ashburton Railway Stations for easy access to the CBD and wonderful private schools.
