Steeped in history and timeless elegance on a picturesque 2-acre (approx) allotment, this circa-1960s home showcases the quintessential old-world Mount Eliza lifestyle with a swimming pool, tennis court, stables, plenty of room for a pony or two and exciting subdividable possibilities (STCA). Tightly held and much adored since the 1980s as a warm and welcoming family abode, the residence features three grand living areas and a formal dining room across a dual-storey layout. Timber flooring, sash windows, dormer ceilings and fireplaces hint at the mid-century origins, while the scope is there for contemporary updates. Fitted with sleek all-white appliances, including a Blanco convection oven and a dishwasher, the kitchen spills into the family room backdropped by an enclosed Ultimate fireplace in a tall brick surround and library shelving. An array of glass doors facilitates a seamless connection with the expansive enclosed alfresco room with retractable shade sail, while French doors open to a north-facing sun terrace overlooking the undulating park-like gardens peppered with mature deciduous trees. Providing ample room for large alfresco soirees and to accommodate to entire extended family for Christmas and other special occasions, the indoor-outdoor flow is designed for hosting friends and family, as the kids stay endlessly entertained on the tennis court and in the gas-and-solar heated tiled swimming pool flanked by a steamy spa. Flexibly configured to cater to changing needs, the four large junior bedrooms boast bay windows and built-in robes, while the radiant master flaunts a walk-in robe and ensuite with bidet, as well as direct access to the sunny alfresco room. Off the rumpus room with cocktail bar upstairs, the home office with dormer ceiling and attic storage provides a quiet space to work from home. Once the family home of Mount Eliza’s iconic Daddo family, the residence includes a modern family bathroom with tub, a powder room, ducted vacuuming and ducted heating, a double garage and carport behind a circular driveway. With rear laneway access providing a shortcut to Peninsula Grammar and the village, and only minutes to Mount Eliza primary and secondary schools and beaches, the property also offers the potential to subdivide the 8,065sqm (approx) block into four allotments for redevelopment into contemporary residences in this coveted location (STCA).
