A beautiful street presence amid Urquhart Estate environs sets the scene for an exceptional family lifestyle with this superb double-fronted, slate roof Victorian. Only moments to leading schools, parklands and Hawthorn’s vibrant café and shopping precincts, it highlights a perfectly integrated north-facing rear extension and effortlessly combines refined character, modern appointments and floorplan versatility. A family will feel right at home from first impression to last with this outstanding residence that instantly captivates with its double-arched hallway framed by high period ceilings and Baltic pine floorboards introducing a series of spaces resonating with elegance and charm. Family accommodation with 4 sizable bedrooms, or 3 and a sitting room, include a large main bedroom with a walk-in robe and easy-access rainhead shower ensuite, all brilliantly complemented by a huge first-floor retreat (executive study, extra bedroom or living space), a glorious family bathroom with a clawfoot bath, and a handy powder room. A granite-topped kitchen fitted with Bosch stainless-steel appliances and a spacious walk-in pantry adjoins an open-plan setting filled with north light that extends from a family dining area to a stylish living space where dual bifolding doors reveal an expansive entertainment deck and plumbed BBQ area backdropped by established north-facing greenery and ROW. A cleverly concealed wine cellar and a separate laundry along with hydronic heating, split-system air-conditioning, open and gas fireplaces, heated towel rails and plantation shutters complete a picture of enduring grace and family perfection. This impeccably presented Victorian is enviably located for family success close to private and primary schools, Auburn Village, Glenferrie Road and Camberwell Junction precincts, Swinburne University, trams, train station, Fritsch Holzer Park and the Monash freeway.
