73 Murphy Street
Brighton

Beautifully restored and extended Edwardian home has it all for a relaxed family lifestyle, three doors from Elsternwick Park and around the corner from Elsternwick Primary School. The two-storey spaciousness is brilliant, with a double-height family room opening onto a deck and easy-care garden, five bedrooms and a sun-filled upstairs retreat. Love this from the moment you see the classic street appeal, original Baltic pine floors, high ceilings, and potential to add your own style. There's bedrooms on both levels, including an upstairs parents' zone with its own balcony, walk-in wardrobe, and ensuite with a penny-tiled shower and Velux skylight. Open the bifold doors in the family room and relax outdoors, love having lemon, lime and orange trees in the garden, and appreciate the quality fitout of this well-maintained home. Recent updates include stainless steel appliances and pendant lighting in the kitchen, both bathrooms are in great shape, and there's plenty of roof storage. Hydronic heating, split-system air conditioning and ceiling fans offer year-round climate control, and a remote-control awning provides instant shade over the deck. Families love this Brighton neighborhood, where you're metres from one of Bayside's best parks, the beach is a few blocks away, and you can walk to Elwood's cafes and food stores in minutes. Elsternwick railway station and city-bound trams are within easy reach, and many private schools have bus stops close by on New Street.
