Last Listing description (May 2018)

With a commanding street frontage and expansive depth to the block, this four bedroom, two bathroom, two car residence, offers heritage charm and modern comfort to please even the most discerning of buyers. Set back from the road, with manicured landscaped gardens greeting you, the heritage features of stained glass windows and metal lacework don t stop at the front door. A wide and inviting hallway with double Victorian arches provides a thoroughfare to the enormous and well thought out indoor entertaining and through to the outdoor oasis.

The large central family bathroom offers both space and amenity, with separate shower and bathtub for the growing family. The back of the house is a hub for entertaining. With open kitchen, dining and living all amalgamated into one, that said, the area is also vast enough that you could segregate areas to ensure that eating, homework and play are all managed at once.

A tiered rear garden provides a great sense of depth and grandeur with spectacular outdoor lighting, while offering the kids a place to call their own amongst the abundance of fruit trees.

Situated in a quiet street with easy access to parks, public transport, walking distance to a suite of Melbourne s elite private and public schools and Kew Junction for shopping, this is the perfect opportunity for a growing family or savvy downsizers looking for a single level home close to the grandkids.
