Make history in the heart of Bayside’s most future-forward locale. One of the first landholding properties of the area... and one of the last to remain, this century-old 1920 Californian Bungalow is respectfully renovated to provide a today’s family-wise three bedroom plus nursery/home-office, two bathroom, dual zone living; filled with northern light and full of entertaining poolside living.

Unfolding beyond a beautiful bay-windowed facade and grand double-door entry with traditional formal lounge and rooms, this classic Californian extends past the granite bench of a prestige 2-Pack kitchen with a north-facing window-walled family zone wrapped by entertainers’ decks in two directions.

Designed for family harmony with a private pool-view master-suite (with elegant ensuite) and kids’ bedrooms around period-styled main bathroom (with claw foot bath), there are all the contemporary comforts including ducted heating and cooling, reverse-cycle air-conditioning, and an alarm.

Richly detailed with lovely leadlight, lofty ceilings, picture rails and Baltic Pine boards flowing seamlessly throughout, the home is a showcase of timeless style with airy plantation shutters, decorative and working fireplaces, and custom-cabinetry including robes and a walk-in storeroom.

Set in a landscaped and lit garden paradise featuring formal front gardens alongside extended three-car gated parking, and a sparkling dual-heated pool (with a Sunbather safety hardcover) amongst spot-lit trees including a grand Jacaranda, this grand original is perfect for today ...just around the corner from Highett Rd’s ever-evolving retail and rail strip, a direct to commute to the CBD and minutes to the best of beachside life!
