7 Baxter Street
Elsternwick

Behind a beautifully restored Edwardian façade and garden frontage, a substantial contemporary extension extends into a more expansive, connected layout, delivering four-bedroom, two-bathroom living with excellent family zoning, indoor-outdoor flow and 516 sqm (approx) in peaceful Elsternwick.

A beautiful leadlight entry and wide hallway introduce generous light-filled spaces across an easy single level, where high ceilings and charming decorative period detail honour the home's heritage. Three distinct living zones welcome flexibility and excellent zoning, including a north-facing formal living room/fourth bedroom with OFP that captures sun throughout the day, before opening out to an expansive living, dining and entertaining domain at the rear. As it opens up, light carries right through to the decked, covered al-fresco dining zone and a private rear garden, framed by established hedging and offering secure space for the kids to play. Finished with bespoke timber cabinetry, stone benchtops and a full suite of Smeg appliances, the kitchen hosts with ease, flowing onto a scullery and laundry. An additional living room to the rear adds another layer of use, whether as an extended living area or a more private home office with ample storage.

Two well-proportioned bedrooms feature built-in robes, one with an OFP and the other a desk nook, and are serviced by the sleek main bathroom, with a separate bath. The larger main suite is a retreat of its own, opening to a tranquil, private courtyard and featuring a walk-through robe and stylish ensuite. Hydronic heating, split-system air conditioning, ducted vacuum, plantation shutters and abundant storage are complemented by secure off-street parking for two behind motorised gates, completing a move-in-ready home in a leafy streetscape just moments from Glenhuntly Road’s cafés and shops, Hopetoun Gardens, leading schools and easy transport links.
