Canterbury’s prestigious Golden Mile precinct reveals a rare gem, and tucked peacefully away at the rear in a block of only two, this secluded single-level boutique home with a versatile studio presents a unique opportunity to secure a sought-after foothold in one of Melbourne’s most elite blue-chip enclaves. Surrounded by established garden greenery, this inviting residence is unusual for the area. Offered for the first time in over 30-years, the property is completely comfortable providing immediate liveability and coupled with exceptional potential to add a layer of value-adding contemporary luxury, is an ideal downsizing option, a smart market entry-point or a rewarding investment in a neighbourhood defined by grand estates, prestige schools and enduring capital growth. Secure porch entry with an arched timber door introduces a light-filled interior where hybrid flooring flows through a flexible layout incorporating two sizable bedrooms with garden aspects and built-in or walk-in robes, including the main with a ceiling fan and its own adjoining powder room. A central bathroom with a spa bath and shower is accompanied by a separate toilet and a spacious laundry, while further is a detached studio or home office with convenient internal access to a remote-control garage, offering valuable flexibility for those working from home or seeking a quiet creative retreat. Preferred north-side orientation defines a series of interconnected spaces that wrap around the outdoor areas and create a seamless relationship between inside and out. A bright lounge room with a large open fireplace and garden outlook links easily to a dedicated dining area, with both offering sliding doors that extend the space to a surrounding paved terrace, while further is a well-appointed kitchen with a servery, step-in pantry and Artusi stainless-steel gas cooktop, double ovens and a dishwasher. Beside it is a meals area before a generous air-conditioned living room that too opens out to the terrace and private garden for a relaxed morning coffee, entertaining guests or pottering in a tranquil leafy setting. Complemented by ducted heating and security alarm, this delightful home with additional off-street parking space is a low-maintenance Golden Mile oasis with unrivalled prospects of perfection near charming Maling Road village cafes, Balwyn’s range of restaurant and shopping options, Belmont and Boroondara Parks, the Anniversary Trail, trams, train station and private schools including Camberwell Grammar and Fintona as well as Canterbury Girls’ Secondary College.
