26 Parker Street Ormond

Currently a featured "Dream Home" and set on 918 sqm, this stunning 1930s Californian Bungalow offers the perfect fusion of yesterday’s beauty, today’s architecture and tranquil family living. Beautifully situated on a sweeping 17.9 m appx frontage this 4 bedroom plus study nook, 2.5 bathroom home transitions seamlessly from substantial period beauty…to expansive north-facing contemporary living … to a spectacular al fresco zone in sunbathed poolside gardens.

Beautifully zoned with a grand master-suite (with fully-tiled ensuite and walk-in-robe) centre-stage amongst the original rooms, the home stretches out in the sun with expansive open plan living-dining and a family lounge separated by a slide-away wall. Opening with rich detail including high decorative ceilings and Art Deco leadlight, the home moves to become a showcase of elite architectural design with full height (3m) commercial bi-folds opening to the north, a massive marble dining-island fronting an AEG appliance kitchen, and a streamlined tiled heated pool and spa behind invisible glass-fencing.

Bespoke detailed with rare wide solid Australian hardwood floors and custom cabinetry (including a clever butler’s pantry and secret fitted study), the home is appointed to the highest standard with hydronic heating (extending to towel rails), evaporative cooling (plus a reverse-cycle air-conditioner), and Bose speakers (inside and out). This period beauty even has a future-forward outlook with 6KW solar panels, 1800L tank, and a Tesla charging station in the two-car auto-garage.

Yet for all its architectural graces, the home retains exceptionally family-wise spaces with deep lawns which include mature apple, orange, mandarin, lemon, and apricot trees. It’s the ultimate kids’ space starring a home-away-from-home cubby, a vegie patch, workshop, chook shed…and even a woodfire pizza oven! Just half a dozen blocks to the Ormond shopping strip and station, a walk to schools including Kilvington Grammar, and in-Zone for McKinnon Primary School, this is a unique family lifestyle opportunity – just around the corner from kids’ favourite Packer Park and the grown-ups favoured Koornang Rd restaurants.
