Dont be fooled by this pretty face...behind a traditional 1920s façade, this clever three bedroom, two bathroom home opens up to offer very contemporary fresco-focused living. Extended from a solid-brick base, this charming home offers more than just the light and airy open-plan living that modern families expect ...beyond a wisteria-draped pergola theres a second living zone in the great outdoors. Linked to the house by a high-gabled undercover entertaining area and entered through a wide wall of bi-folds, this flexible separate studio-style space with kitchenette and third bathroom is a smart separate living area or versatile fourth bedroom accommodation for soon-to-be-independent children.Within the main home, space is equally smart with a huge dressing-room making the bay-windowed master-suite into a true master domain large enough for study or retreat and a quality European stainless-steel appliance kitchen within family living allowing a relaxed open-plan approach. With generous auto-garaging adding to the outdoor benefits, alarm and reverse-cycle air-conditioning for even easier living, this period beauty has more than enough modern benefits...even the location is the perfect periodmodern mix – in the heart of Bentleighs period precinct, yet just moments from Centre Rd, Bentleigh station, Allnutt Park and schools.
