Stand alone, and on its own title with no Body Corporate, this completely renovated double-brick beauty graces this tranquil and exceptionally quiet position within the coveted blue-chip Brighton Golf Course and Dendy Park precinct. Captivating with its unique inspired flair, restored original elements and private north-facing garden setting, this blissfully low-maintenance home is perfect for downsizers.
Securely set behind a high picket fence and featuring a bluestone paved entryway, the newly rendered and painted circa 1932 façade presents a picture-perfect welcome through a covered portico. A turquoise front door and white-washed engineered timber flooring make a dramatic style statement further enhanced by elegant embossed white wallpaper in the entry hall. Freshly painted in gleaming white, and retaining all the grandeur of its almost century-old origins, period features include leadlight bay windows, intricate plasterwork atop soaring ceilings and ornate timber fireplace surrounds.
Spacious and light filled, a free-flowing layout encompasses an expansive living, dining and family zone, while the brand new character kitchen is appointed with top-end appliances including Neff oven, Asko gas cooktop and Miele dishwasher and rangehood. Rich in ornate period detail, two charming bedrooms are complemented by two stylishly appointed renovated bathrooms (including the en-suite to master), and the laundry with external access door.
With a high gabled roof, a new high fence completely surrounds this surprisingly spacious property. Choices abound for sun or shade alfresco sitting areas on all sides of the home which is set in immaculately landscaped low-maintenance gardens edged with a mixture of native and exotic plants including a long standing Banksia tree after which the home is named, together with silver princess eucalypts, ornamental pears and magnolias.
Recent enhancements include new electrical, plumbing, central heating, hot water service, reverse cycle cooling and a monitored alarm system with security cameras. Includes remotely operated auto door single garage and additional off street parking space. A large garden/storage in keeping with the aesthetics of the home rounds out the exterior.
This much-cherished landmark property is renowned within the local neighborhood for its uniqueness and beauty. Just a short walk to Hampton Street cafes, Were Street Village, St Leonards and Haileybury College and within easy reach of Brighton Beach, train stations and Church Street shopping.
