A picture of beauty on the doorstep of Penpraze Park, this beautiful double fronted Edwardian four bedroom, two bathroom residence set on 561sqm (approx.) is a private family home that combines striking heritage detail with consummate modern living and sublime north-west garden entertaining with a swimming pool. Live in comfort, host guests in style and be close to everything Malvern and its surrounds offer. Step inside and elegant period detail from pressed metal ceilings to open fireplaces and a gloriously wide return hallway sit harmoniously with engineered oak flooring and plantation shutters throughout a spacious interior. Oozing family functionality and liveability with three living areas, superb renovated kitchen and seamless indoor-outdoor connections, there’s a space and place for everyone. A formal living room complements a separate family room with a clever study nook tucked out of the way and access to the indoor-outdoor dining room. Here, a wall of floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors cascade back so you can flow unrestricted from the dining room to the covered dining deck and swimming pool for instant refreshment on a hot summer’s day. The renovated kitchen is designed to meet the needs of family life and entertaining with a beautiful stone finish, central island with breakfast bar, a suite of quality appliances including a dishwasher and considered storage with a generous pantry. A window seat in the adjoining conservatory nook is a lovely spot to contemplate life overlooking the garden greenery and pool. The four bedrooms are generous in size, two with built-in desks and all with built-in robes and fireplaces including the elegant main bedroom with an updated ensuite. Additional appointments include a main bathroom with a freestanding clawfoot tub, separate laundry, ducted heating, air conditioning, herringbone parquetry flooring and off-street parking for two cars. Peacefully located in a quiet cul-de-sac just a short walk to Malvern Primary School and Tooronga Road buses, the location is ideal for a family with Penpraze Park footsteps away and close to Glenferrie Road’s shopping and dining precinct, Malvern Central, trams, Caulfield Park and a choice of public and private schools.
