Period grace with family space

Enjoy the picture perfect surroundings of this substantial, 3-bedroom period home offering versatile family options to live, rest and entertain in a premium, lifestyle pocket. Zoned for Gardenvale Primary School just a short stroll to vibrant village eateries, wine bars, shops and the station, North Road buses and Gardenvale Park, with the beach and a selection of leading schools within easy reach.

Beyond pretty cottage gardens, picket fencing and a traditional facade, this character-rich home unfolds to showcase a sensational, single level layout zoned to suit the needs of families at every age and stage. Inviting formal lounge and dining rooms provide beautiful spaces to savour throughout the year with cosy open fireplaces, a veranda and private courtyard to catch the summer sun.

A light filled, family domain is the heart of this home featuring a classically appointed kitchen graced with a top of the range Bosch dishwasher and an abundance of custom cabinetry including pantry and wine storage. Generous living and dining flows out to gorgeous garden entertaining complete with a decked, al fresco pavilion, grassy play and established gardens dappled in north-westerly sunshine.

Be spoilt for choice with an elegant main bedroom (bay window, open fireplace and floor to ceiling robes) zoned to the front of the house plus a second bedroom (built-in robes/desk) and family bathroom meticulously updated to complement the era with a timber vanity and indulgent claw-foot bath. Towards the rear there’s another master option or perfect guest/teen quarters boasting a walk-in dressing room and tiled en suite.

Beautifully renovated by the current owners, who have loved this happy home for over 26 years, now it's your turn to enhance it with your own style and create your own family memories. Extra high ceilings, original leadlights and polished floorboards plus laundry with powder room, lined attic storage, ducted heating, reverse cycle cooling, ceiling fans and gated driveway parking for up to 3-cars in a central yet wonderfully quiet Bayside locale.
