Elsternwick VIC 3185

This enchanting Edwardian seamlessly combines period charm with an elegant, highly functional renovation to create a warm, charismatic and practical home. Comprising 4+ bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms and an external, fully appointed studio/home office/guest accommodation, this house is destined to be a long term home.
Set in one of Elsternwicks finest streets, the house presents with a welcoming picketed frontage, ornate fret-worked verandah and decorative leadlight. Each room off the central hallway is light filled and impressively appointed, with two original fireplaces and the airiness that comes with period high ceilings. Dark timber boards flow through the shuttered bedrooms, the master with a walk-in robe and ensuite. Bathrooms are simply stunning, featuring underfloor heating and exquisite features.
To the rear is a vast open casual living and entertaining space. The kitchen triumphs with its stunning, high-end design, including Calacatta marble, copper bench tops, and bench to ceiling matt black tiles. This is a cooks kitchen with a five burner stove, an oven that converts from 900mm to a twin, and a commercial fridge space. A huge stand-alone island provides ample preparation space whilst also inviting family and guests to join the cook in their preparations. A hidden walk-through butlers pantry (and laundry) completes the cooks domain.
