Wonderfully positioned in a prized Brighton East pocket a short stroll to Hurlingham and Landcox Parks, this quality, 5-bedroom home is family-sized and ready to enjoy. Starting life as a Californian Bungalow and extended to meet modern requirements while still retaining its period charm, with poolside entertaining in the northerly sun the focus.
Private and secure beyond high fencing, a grassy front yard and neat veranda introduce a beautifully wide, skylit hallway with hardwood flooring sweeping through the original quarters. A generous formal lounge is graced with boxed leadlight windows and picture rails, while the dining room, warmed by granite fronted, open fireplace, steps out to a paved courtyard.
Beneath a towering, vaulted ceiling an incredibly spacious kitchen is filled with light and style featuring premium Miele appliances (4-burner gas cooktop, oven and dishwasher), timber benches and island, and ample cupboard space. Glass-wrapped family living continues out to a brick paved, al fresco area with built-in BBQ, shade awning, pool/spa in a low maintenance, north-facing rear.
A sought after, ground level master (mirrored built-in robes and shoe storage) boasts one of two designer bathrooms with a stylish, porcelain vanity en suite. Upstairs three additional bedrooms (built-in robes) and the second, updated bathroom (deep bath and separate WC) provide a brilliant kids’ domain, while a fifth bedroom offers the option of a bright work from home space or study downstairs.
Other enviable additions include a large laundry plus WC and a remote controlled double garage with thru-access for a trailer or boat plus a long, paved driveway. Central heating with reverse cycle air conditioning and new carpet upstairs, this value-packed home is close to everything Brighton has to offer in the Gardenvale Primary zone. Bay Street shops, restaurants and transport, other excellent schools, parkland, sporting clubs and the beach are easily accessible by car, bike or foot.
