Iron-laced, wide-verandahed and lavishly leadlit, this exquisite style for an exceptional beachside lifestyle. Meticulously renovated with a passion for period detail, this centrally-heated four bedroom plus study, two bathroom home offers today's living with a very private master domain, fine formal lounge and dining rooms, and a fabulous family zone …all set against a backdrop of deep-corniced 9' ceilings, lavish leadlight and solid hardwood floors.
In pursuit of period perfection every detail is here; a magazine-quality French Provincial kitchen features a 'Victoria' Smeg range and sleek Vintec fridge amongst soft-close Blum cabinetry… and matches a beautiful ceramic Belfast sink to the similarly-fitted butlers' pantry. Bathrooms showcase an equal commitment to quality with floor-to-ceiling tiling, Schots' vintage-style fittings and tapware. There's even a lavish freestanding bath and impressive marble vanity for the ensuite.
In this grand design, Murano glass-tile splashbacks feature above stone benchtops, antique lighting is operated by period-style electrical hardware, and silk and French lace furnishings frame sash windows. An elegant marble-surround granite-hearth open-fireplace warms the formal zone, while a delicate skylight graces the library-study, and attic storage is set high in the roofline. Even the grounds have timeless beauty; opening up beyond wrought iron fencing and gates with a high-gabled two-car carport plus garage on a bluestone-edged red-brick driveway.
Richly detailed with a wealth of contemporary comfort, this is pure period-style perfection in the perfect location – right on the edge of the Mentone education precinct – within easy walking distance of the private and primary schools, Mentone village, station and bay.
