29 Milton Street, Canterbury

Comfortable, characterful, and commanding with its stance to magnificent Milton Street, this expansive and effortlessly practical residence (no heritage overlay) offers a refined, relaxing, and altogether remarkable take on luxury for the large family. Making an instant impression with its lush gardens, wide frontage, and entrance framed by herringbone parquetry and a double-height ceiling, a sweeping interior places real-world function at the fore. A substantial front living/dining area and three-user office sit either side of a broad hallway, while at plan’s rear, entwined family, meals, and kitchen areas spill into a vast and wonderfully private backyard brilliant for parents to entertain as kids burn off excess energy. Taking in tremendous sights across leafy surrounds, a light-filled upper level sees two statement bridges cross the void so central to the home’s scale, grandeur, and airiness. A walk-in robe and sizeable ensuite both feature in an oversized primary bedroom, while a luxe main bathroom and wealth of storage serve bedrooms two, three, and four. Its green outlooks, stunning natural light, and practicality beyond compare delivering family living of the highest calibre, stand-outs include comprehensive heating/cooling, a bath and twin basins in both bathrooms, a downstairs powder room, fitted bar, alarm, full-size laundry, AEG and Bosch appliances, storerooms, a gas-log fire, tandem two-car garage, extra driveway space, and two added lane frontages for a potential second garage or future subdivision (STCA). With famous Maling Road at the end of the street to ensure great coffee and boutique shopping are mere steps away, it’s just metres to pristine parks and walking trails, zoned Canterbury Primary and Camberwell High Schools, and trains promising quick Box Hill, Camberwell Junction, Glenferrie Road, MCG, and city access, while central to an array of private schools that are among Melbourne’s finest.
