154 Darling Road

A meticulous architect's-own renovation has elevated this exquisite, brick, 1940s Art Deco classic into an eye-catching two bedroom plus home office residence with an alluring, contemporary, al fresco flow. Meanwhile, yours is the opportunity to further benefit from their inspiration by utilising their inspired, council-approved plans to construct an independent three bedroom, luxury townhouse with its own rear access, at the rear of this extraordinary 439 square metre (approx.) allotment.
Under superbly detailed decorative ceilings, with leadlight windows, original dappled plasterwork and hardwood flooring, the home flows past a pair of robed bedrooms and a huge, gas log fireplace-heated lounge room to a modern open-plan kitchen / dining area. A suite of Miele appliances is complemented by stone benchtops in a space that opens seamlessly to the sun-drawing joy of a large deck and a deep backyard that benefits from plenty of eastern and northern exposure. Also at the rear, an independently accessed and carpeted home office with its own split system provides an important option, especially in times of working from home.
Extra features include a showpiece terrazzo-tiled bathroom with decadent sub-floor heating, a frameless-screened shower and heated towel rail, as well as a brilliant, lined attic with added storage, plus split system heating and air conditioning.
Nestled between the glorious open spaces of Hedgeley Dene Gardens and Gardiners Creek parkland, this exclusively positioned home is zoned for Lloyd St Primary School and offers easy city access via Darling Railway Station, Waverley Rd trams and the M1 Freeway, plus there are wonderful local cafes and plenty of shopping along Glenferrie Rd, Malvern Central and Chadstone Shopping Centres.
