45 Bertram Street, Elsternwick.

From its leadlight bow window and decorative gable to the unexpectedly deep garden behind, this captivating Edwardian combines period beauty, generous proportions and enormous lifestyle appeal on approximately 460sqm. Set in a peaceful no-through road with Gardenvale Park at the end, the home makes an enchanting first impression behind its front garden. Inside, Baltic pine floorboards and high ceilings with ornate roses retain the elegance of its era, balanced by contemporary touches and an airy flow throughout. Expansive living and dining rooms, each crowned by a soaring skylight, unfold through the centre of the home. An open fireplace features in the lounge, while the adjoining dining room reveals a full exposed-brick wall, its texture continued in a pair of arched, glass-shelved display nooks. Rich in character, it is a rustic backdrop for entertaining. The updated kitchen pairs stone benchtops with Bosch appliances, including a dishwasher, while the modern bathroom incorporates a shower over the bath and toilet, complemented by a separate powder room. The front robed bedroom is especially beautiful, bathed in the soft coloured light of the windows. Two further bedrooms include one with built-in robes, allowing flexibility to accommodate children, guests or a home office. Outside, a covered patio looks across the backyard, with a studio or storeroom tucked at the rear. Off-street parking for two cars, laundry, ducted heating, ceiling fans and solar power complete a restumped home that is as functional as it is full of personality. Gardenvale Station and bus stops are within walking distance, as are the cafés, shops and restaurants of cosmopolitan Martin Street and lively Elsternwick Village. Zoned for Caulfield Primary School and Elwood College, it offers a wonderfully quiet setting with everything you need close at hand.
