A sensational fusion of space and lifestyle, this expansive five-bedroom family residence delivers the perfect balance of everyday comfort and contemporary luxury in a peaceful parkland pocket within the Northcote High School catchment precinct. Balancing elegant period character with striking modern design, this extraordinary property unfolds across 2 distinct yet seamlessly connected domains on a 530 sqm approx. corner allotment offering a rare inner-city opportunity amid superbly-landscaped, native-inspired gardens. Wide frontage where an elevated Californian bungalow merges with a towering 2-level extension creates a stunning first impression. A soaring 7-metre interior void introduces a substantial layout with a children’s wing, parents’ retreat and a vast family zone. The original and renovated section of the home including ducted heating, split-system air-conditioning and access to secure garden, offers a classic layout ideal for active kids with its 4 large bedrooms revolving around a generous lounge room before extending to a centrally-situated family bathroom and a full-size laundry. Framed by full-height windows and louvred glazing promoting natural ventilation over both levels, the entire top-floor of the architect-designed addition is dedicated to parents who will love the massive bedroom with a fitted study nook, the walk-in robe, the indulgent heated-floor ensuite and leafy views of the surrounding district. At ground-level on a polished and heated concrete floor is a huge expanse of living and dining space opening to a north-facing timber entertainment deck. Overlooking garden and flooded with north-easterly light, this enormous air-conditioned area is specifically designed for a family to come together in a fire-side setting that integrates a spacious gourmet kitchen featuring Smeg and Bosch stainless-steel appliances, a stone-topped breakfast island and a walk-in pantry. Nestled in a cul-de-sac that leads to the Merri Creek trail, this compelling family home is an absolute standout and one of a kind, unlocking a lifestyle that offers a connection to nature and the urban inner north with its proximity to local cafes, North Fitzroy Village, Lygon and High Streets, schools including Merri Creek PS and the Deutsche Schule, trams and Merri train station.
