Bringing together the period charm of its Edwardian origins, adding in an irresistible coastal appeal and wrapping it all up in incredibly private gardens, this c1905 home trumps with a peaceful position at the end of a desirable cul-de-sac.Behind a fenced front garden, a shady verandah is the perfect vantage point from which to take in surroundings, then once through the delicately coloured leadlight door, the interiors showcase soaring decorative ceilings, panelled walls and warm timber accents.Extremely inviting, the layout comprises a central kitchen flaunting Miele and Smeg appliances along with a walk-in pantry. With a curvaceous granite island bench welcoming guests, this space extends to a formal dining room with an eye-catching original fireplace, while a second fireplace warms the peaceful lounge complete with library shelving and window seatA huge family zone offers valuable extra living space and features doors to a wraparound deck that provides a sheltered area for outdoor get-togethers. Stepping down there is plenty of grass for the kids to play, whilst more fresh air is offered from the upper-level balcony.Three beautiful bedrooms span the two levels – the downstairs room featuring stunning barn-style doors on the built-in wardrobe and serviced by an adjacent fully-renovated bathroom with space for a laundry. An ensuite bedroom upstairs, balcony access for the other and fans/robes in both keep the highlights coming - ducted heating and a split system plus a shed, carport and auto-gated parking for 3 cars round off the package.Ready to be enjoyed, the home is merely 500m to the station & cafes, moments more to the beach and a walk to Parkdale Primary School, it also boasts zoning for Mentone Girls’ and Parkdale secondary colleges.For more information about this coastal garden sanctuary, please contact Mathew Cox at Buxton Mentone on 0413 102 224
