Uncover the original Californian Bungalow beauty, discover the appeal in a Modernist extension, find your inspiration in this blue-chip beachside location. Just 25 doors from the bay in a row of substantial Californian Bungalows (some sympathetically renovated, some solidly modernised), this four bedroom, two bathroom, triple-zone home is arguably the most inspiring of them all; with original proportions and features in place at the front, 1980s extension soaring at the rear...and an excellent family floorplan to cross the ages!Retaining the spirit of the original home with lofty ceilings, corner fireplaces (one gas) and bow-bay-windows replaced with full-height glass, the home opens with gracious lounge and dining rooms, and a grand master-bedroom...before rising to inspiring heights. Styled with soaring vaulted ceilings, tiled floors, and massive timber and glass sliders, there’s a timelessly family-wise design that puts an entertainment zone at the heart of the home and a dedicated kids (in-laws, or guest) wing beyond a separate entry.Ready to welcome with a prestige stone-benchtop kitchen overlooking family meals, a glossy bathroom in each section of the home, and double-garaging, this immensely solid home has all you need right now; including multiple reverse-cycle air-conditioners, energy-efficient panel-heating, a gas-fire and alarm. There’s even attic-storage in addition to well-fitted robes. Then there’s all the inspiration you could need for tomorrow. Fit an ensuite in the huge dressing-room, paint up exposed-brick walls and soaring timber-lined ceilings for an up-to-the-minute look and raised tiled floors. Move in and relax for now, see through your vision when the time is right, but don’t miss this chance to secure your place on the preferred western side of this iconic beachside address backing the playing fields of Mentone Girls Secondary College - just 300m to the path to Mentone’s most swimmable beach, and a walk to Mentone’s shopping village, station and schools, plus you are in the Beaumaris Secondary College School Zone.
