Comprehensively renovated with a relentless eye for detail and a passion for lavish indoor-outdoor connections, ‘Woodhouse’ is an absolutely flawless, open and airy family haven offered for the first time in 27 years. Carefully curated to create a genuine sense of sanctuary that warms the heart, the home offers a flexible five bedroom, two bathroom design while gazing out across the rich verdant expanses of King Street Reserve - to which it enjoys the rare privilege of direct gated access.

With every detail carefully considered in its reimagining, the home’s Miele-equipped kitchen highlights twin ovens, induction cooking and vast stone-topped benches that include a waterfall-edged island at the heart of its open plan. Seamlessly, the indoors flow outdoors to a large undercover deck that is proportioned for big family functions while overlooking a backyard that is a family dream with a vegetable gardens, a fire pit area and gated access to the open spaces, playgrounds and joy of King Street Reserve.

The bedrooms each offer wonderful family accommodation – most notably the primary bedroom that also offers a dressing room and a fully-tiled ensuite with a walk-in shower. Three of the remaining bedrooms have been completed with either walk-in or built-in robes while enjoying convenient adjacency to a central family bathroom that is every bit as stylish as the primary bedroom’s ensuite.

Catering perfectly to the needs of large and growing families, the home also features a lounge room with its own outdoor deck, plus there is a large laundry and a secure carport with secure driveway parking for an additional two vehicles. Further highlights include superb polished hardwood flooring, plantation shutters, volumes of storage – including under the stairs – and ducted heating backed-up by split system air conditioning.

Zoned for the coveted pairing of Deepdene Primary School and Kew High School while offering easy access to the elite private school belt, this is a particularly sought after family pocket just moments from all the cafes, dining, shopping, cinemas and trams of Whitehorse Road, as well as Belmore Road buses and easy access to Kew Junction.
