Refined period elegance combines with contemporary ambiance and style in this irresistible double-fronted Victorian home situated in a desirable tree-lined avenue close to Foley Reserve.

Beyond the appealing exterior profile of this picturesque single level c1890 residence, a wide entrance hall with soaring ceilings and rich hardwood floors introduces the generously proportioned, light-filled spaces that are the hallmark of this sublime family sanctuary.

At the rear, an expansive north-facing living and dining zone offers the ultimate space for relaxed family living. The dazzling kitchen pairs Miele and Ilve appliances with extensive shaker-style cabinetry while a sparkling granite island is the perfect centrepiece for family and friends to gather around.

This serene space opens up on both sides to superbly landscaped courtyard gardens with the largest on the northern side providing a tranquil, low-maintenance space for outdoor living and entertaining.

Back in the original part of the house, there are three spacious bedrooms with stunning marble fireplaces including a captivating front master with a charming bay window, two sets of built-in robes and a crisp ensuite. A dazzling travertine bathroom with indulgent freestanding bath, heated towel rail and a verdant outlook services the other two bedrooms, both of which also benefit from built-in robes and attractive ceiling roses.

A second living room with extensive shelving either side of the striking black marble fireplace offers more space for a family to spread out, while also offering the potential to be used as a fourth bedroom if desired.
