SINGLE-LEVEL GRACE & TODAY'S SPACE
Find period inspiration in the perfect beachside location. At the gateway to the Keys Rd shopping village and with a ‘secret’ shortcut to the Bodley St sports reserve, this master-built Victorian-reproduction home, on approx. 432sqm sets the standard in beachside single-level living with a substantial three bedroom, two bathroom floorplan that moves from traditional formal lounge and dining to today’s sun-filled indoor-outdoor living. Cleverly zoned with a garden-view master-suite with floor-to-ceiling walk-through robe to a luxe ensuite to the front, this contemporary design suits every stage of life with a wing for kids, grandkids, guests or working at home set quietly to the rear.
Representing a rare opportunity to live with the grace of yesterday and the spaces and amenity of today, this substantial single-level home unfolds beyond a tessellated-tiled veranda and lavish leadlight entry to offer a timeless timber kitchen (with pristine St George appliances including dual ovens), period-style bathrooms (one a private ensuite with mirror storage, the vast main with clawfoot bath), and a well-fitted laundry with more floor-to-ceiling storage.
Setting heritage-style Axminster carpets and highest-quality window-furnishings against a backdrop of high deep-corniced ceilings and wide corbelled archways, this centrally heated and cooled home is appointed for today with additional reverse-cycle air-conditioning for each zone, a glowing gasfire for the curvaceous formal lounge, and a sensor-lit step in pantry for the kitchen. There’s even an eye to the future with a 2500L water-tank and an 11-panel, 2kW solar-energy system.
Set in low-maintenance grounds with a formal landscape to the front, an all-weather entertainer’s area (with beautiful bronze fountain) to the side and a fruitful kitchen garden alongside a double-plus rear-access auto-garage, this timeless beauty has the location of a lifetime with a rear lane direct to Bodley St Tennis courts, the Bowls Club and Kindergarten, Banksia Reserve, the Primary School and Concourse within walking distance, and zoning for Beaumaris and Mentone Girls Secondary Colleges.
