A beautifully updated residence, this single-level home pairs genuine period character with the bright, free-flowing proportions that today’s families are searching for. Timber floors run throughout, anchoring a series of spacious, interconnected living zones defined by elegant classical columns and warm, classical detailing. It appeals directly to families and downsizers drawn to architectural substance, quality bones and an address that delivers on every practical front.
Entry leads into the open-plan dining and living area at the core of the home, where classical columns frame the space and the kitchen sits within easy reach. From here, the layout steps down into the rear lounge, the standout room of the house, where a raked ceiling rises overhead, highlight windows draw light from above and floor-to-ceiling glazing opens directly onto the decked alfresco. Back through the main living zone, a formal sitting room with a gas heater provides a warm front-of-home retreat, completing a living sequence that offers genuine variety and separation.
The kitchen is fitted with spacious stone benchtops, a gas cooktop, under-bench oven and characterful leadlight glass cabinetry, with a unique rounded breakfast bar seating and a dedicated meals area handling the everyday. The bedroom wing sits separately off the central hall, with the main bedroom a calm and well-proportioned retreat with built-in robes, flanked by two further bedrooms, both with built-in robes and leafy outlooks through sliding and corner windows.
Split-system air conditioning is installed across multiple rooms, with ducted heating providing year-round comfort throughout. Established, low-maintenance gardens frame both the front and rear, with off-street parking to the front.
Positioned directly on Doncaster Road, the location is as practical as it gets in this pocket of Melbourne’s north-east. Tunstall Square Shopping Centre is a quick walk at the end of the block, with bus connections on the doorstep. Nunawading Station and Mitcham Station are a few minutes drive, and Westfield Doncaster and The Pines Shopping Centre are both within easy reach. Donburn Primary School is an easy walk, while East Doncaster Secondary College and Beverley Hills Primary School are among the well-regarded local schooling options nearby. Ruffey Lake Park, Zerbes Reserve, and Donvale Reserve are all close by for weekend recreation.
