Spanning across two levels on a generously proportioned yet low-maintenance 493sqm (approx.) block stands this stately five-bedroom, three-bathroom family home inside the prestigious Serpell Primary School catchment area. Located in one of Templestowe’s most desired neighbourhoods for family living, this grand and glorious family residence achieves everyday family functionality with its three separate living areas, while the luxury of a deluxe guest bedroom downstairs (with ensuite and walk-in robe) effortlessly caters for multi-generational living. Polished timber floors flow stylishly throughout the vast downstairs footprint, which introduces a versatile study/fifth bedroom before arriving at the refined formal lounge/dining area and vast open-plan living domain in the heart of the impressive home. A central island bench and Butler’s pantry accentuates the functionality of the magnificent cook’s kitchen; a sun-soaked deck offers a fantastic platform to entertain in style. Three double bedrooms (second master with ensuite and walk-in robe) are zoned in privacy upstairs with a central family bathroom and quiet sitting area, while a large laundry, abundant storage, remote double garage, ducted climate control, plantation shutters and quality finishes add another layer of positive appeal. Excellent schools, The Pines Shopping Centre, transport, parks and the Eastern Freeway/Eastlink are just minutes away.
