Spectacular period allure, epic proportions and rolling gardens set the scene for this enchanting Edwardian family home in this warm, friendly neighbourhood. Grandly introduced by a deep front lawn, mature Jacaranda and decorative veranda, this delightful home wildly impresses upon first glance and maintains the charm as you move through the grand dwelling. Soaring decorative ceilings, ornate archways, leadlight, bay windows and beautifully polished timber floorboards feature throughout, perfectly preserved. However, it's the ambiance that delivers the most enchantment, an appeal you can't quite put your finger on, so prominent in homes of this size and of this era. Tastefully modernised without imposing on the already stylish foundations, this stunning home currently comprises three large bedrooms each with built in robes, period unique features and split systems, a huge light filled timber period kitchen with modern appointments, two bathrooms and three flexible living rooms that could surmount to lounge, formal dining and home office, one of the living rooms already with a custom built study nook.

Relishing in its northern aspect, the rooms are light filled and flow freely through to the rear garden which in itself is an impressive proposition, basking in north west orientation and complete with established fruit trees, veggie boxes and rolling lawns that would keep children occupied indefinitely. A paved alfresco area features as you step from the back door, and the property also boasts a large external laundry and sizeable workshop in the rear garden, and a driveway and carport at the front all in great condition. Currently beautifully liveable, there is also abundant potential for further updates or extension (STCA).

Ideally situated in a beautiful family oriented precinct, surrounded by esteemed schooling, across from the community centre with a milk bar on the corner. The tranquil environs don't giveaway the incredible proximity to amenities including Glenhuntly Road with trams and abundant shopping and dining options just a short walk away.
