Brighton VIC 3186

In an enclave where gardens thrive, homes prove extraordinary, and both Brighton and Firbank Grammar sit within seconds, this resort-style haven soaks in sun, relishes privacy, and stays true to its roots a 70s design by revered Jon Friedrich.A high security wall, thriving tropical gardens, sun at all hours, and a statement solar/gas-heated pool and spa make for an entrance to remember. With French and bi-fold doors between inside and out, the refreshed home becomes an entertainers dream. Barbecues are a joy in an open-air alfresco setting, a broad dining space adjoins a first-rate Neff kitchen, and oversized living, and fireside sitting areas collaborate to offer all the flexibility a family could ever ask for. Stepping onto a northern balcony with views across Brightons foliage, three substantial bedrooms are joined upstairs by extensive walk-in/built-in robe space, a main-room ensuite, and bathroom with a bath/shower, while plush carpets, split-system heating/cooling, ample storage, a video intercom, laundry, powder room, and double garage all add to the appeal.With simple scope to reconfigure the ground floor, add a fourth bedroom and third bathroom, and future-proof through one-level living, the home is a Brighton classic reinvented for the modern day; comfortable for years to come and rich with future potential. Parks and playgrounds, the local library, and two Melbourne icons in Church and Bay Streets are within footsteps, as are The Baths, Yacht Club, Bay Trail, and golden sands of the Brighton foreshore.
