Northcote VIC 3070

Behind its white picket fence, this transformed California Bungalow feels both intimate and expansive, a poetic vision of contemporary living. A sense of calm prevails from the wide entrance and amplified by immaculate oak-toned flooring, and a warm neutral palette. High ceilings, generous proportions and abundant glazing define the living spaces, with the open plan lounge, kitchen and dining seamlessly flowing to present multiple sites in which to gather and connect. Floor-to-ceiling stacked glass doors open to an elegantly tiled courtyard with established pear trees standing sentry. A woodfire draws focus in the lounge, while the kitchen - distinguished by reeded glass cabinets and a defining stone island - blends style with functionality. All four bedrooms are serene retreats with ceiling fans - the master boasting a large dressing room and high windows that reveal neighbouring foliage and changing skies. Bathrooms are spacious with heated flooring and fully tiled affairs: while one boasts a soaker tub, both are equipped with rain showers, stone vanities and AXA basins. More highlights: full laundry, storage, climate control and gated off-street parking. Close to aquatic centre, Northcote Plaza, library, High Street, schools (zoned for Northcote High), transport and parks.
