Classic Californian bungalow with a contemporary transformation excels for easy lifestyle living, surrounded by botanical beauty. Set back from the street behind a high bluestone fence, this single-level hideaway has been lovingly transformed. Move here and love living close to Haileybury and St Leonard's College, Hampton Street's shops and Brighton Golf Course, and around the corner from a neighborhood cafe and Castlefield Reserve. The design impresses with three living and dining zones enhanced with original features, including original glass doors and diamond leadlight windows. The light-filled family room opens onto a deck, conversation pit and landscaped garden, and the lounge and dining rooms are welcoming spaces. Contemporary essentials add a quality edge, including European appliances in the spacious kitchen, plantation shutters, zoned main bedroom, and remote-control gates. The transformation of this fine home has included a grand revival of the garden to include grassed play spaces, lemon, lime and orange trees, bay leaf hedging, and a pond. An excellent choice for enjoying two eras of elegant living in a convenient location.
