Why we're obsessed with 4/108 Atherton Road:
A tranquil communal garden of lawns, mature trees and lamp-lit paths sets a peaceful welcome for this freshly presented townhouse in the heart of Oakleigh. The neighbourhood's cosmopolitan buzz is close by, but here the mood is quiet, green and easy. Light-filled and easy to maintain, it's a natural fit for first-home buyers, downsizers and savvy investors.
Morning light streams into the open-plan living and dining zone, where warm-toned floors and a gas wall heater make a cosy setting for slow weekend breakfasts or relaxed nights in. The peninsula kitchen keeps the cook part of the conversation, with a breakfast bar for casual meals, an Electrolux oven, Blanco induction cooktop, Blanco dishwasher, pantry and generous cabinetry ready for quick weeknight meals or long lunches with friends. Out back, a private patio under a pergola is made for alfresco dinners, potted herb gardens or a quiet coffee in the sun.
Upstairs, the spacious main bedroom opens to its own balcony, a peaceful spot to catch the breeze above the garden. The second bedroom works as a guest room, nursery or home office, and both bedrooms have built-in robes. The central bathroom is beautifully appointed with a floating vanity, glass-screened shower and veined tiling. Further highlights include a separate laundry with direct courtyard access, a powder room, under-stair storage, Venetian blinds, a workshop and a carport.
Schooling options are close at hand, including Oakleigh Primary School, Sacred Heart Primary School and Sacred Heart Girls' College. Oakleigh Central is a short walk for Coles, Woolworths and fresh produce, the cafés and restaurants of Eaton Mall are moments away, and Chadstone is a short drive. Oakleigh Station runs Pakenham and Cranbourne line services, buses run along Atherton Road, and the Monash Freeway is a quick drive. Warrawee Park, Brickmakers Park and the Scotchmans Creek Trail offer plenty of green space for weekend walks and play.
