Family entertainer with sensational makeover inside and out…

If you have been looking for an exceptional family home in an idyllic suburb within 5km of the city, your search is finally over. Having recently undergone a spectacular makeover both inside and out, this 1920s Bungalow is an irresistible mix of effortless contemporary comfort and period charm that is the perfect place to call home.

From the front gate you can see how special this home is. Layered hedging frames the captivating sandstone façade with a deliberate modern simplicity. Bluestone steppers usher one to the front veranda with tessellated tiles and a superb front door with original glass panes.

Inside, old and new blend perfectly, with original decorative plaster ceilings and woodwork offset by dark modern engineered oak boards that stretch towards the seamless living extension.

Intersected by a welcoming entrance and hallway is a stylish lounge with decorative mantle, and three generous bedrooms, including a master suite with a walk- through robe, and indulgent ensuite with soaking tub and double shower.

A second bathroom, powder room and laundry have all been beautifully designed and finished to a high standard.

Open plan living is bright, welcoming and spacious. Windows wrap around living and meals with sliders expanding to alfresco entertaining and a picture window framing the pool.

The custom designed kitchen is a triumph of design. Its chic aesthetic incudes a central island bench and timeless shaker style cabinetry that wraps into a sensational butler’s pantry with second dishwasher, sink, prep space and extensive storage.

Outside ticks all the boxes, with linked zones ideal for year-round entertaining and relaxing.

Alfresco dining, equipped with an outdoor kitchen, overlooks the enchanting rear garden and lawn with a curved wall on which to perch.

A glass fence opens onto to a poolside deck that looks down the length of the pool towards a dedicated seating area beneath a modern vine clad arbour.

With its peaceful tree studded location close to public transport to the city and beach, popular shopping hubs, recreation and premium schools, this family entertainer will capture your heart.
