As one of the original art deco clinker bricks built in leafy Vermont, 1 Padua Court stands as a testament to fine history, now ready for its future on this sweeping 638sqms (approx.) corner. Its placement in the prized Vermont Secondary College and Rangeview Primary zones (STSA) and magnificent outlook across The Dandenong Ranges adds to the allure for those wanting a home of period elegance, or developers keen to capitalize on a prime position with a stunning mountain backdrop. The distinctive clinker presents all the ornate detail of the Art Deco era, with leadlight feature windows, a fretwork-lined verandah, brass light fixtures and dado-panelled walls. These exquisite details create a perfectly refined setting, which adds the romance of an open fireplace, a garden bay kitchen window and a magnificent balcony that lets you gaze across the eastern district all the way to The Ranges. Dedicated zoning for the living and bedroom wings encourages quiet retreat along the hallway bedrooms, with formal and casual living space flowing around the kitchen, and a versatile lower-level rumpus featuring its own entrance and tranquil garden views. Grand wrought iron gates open to a curved driveway and 4-car carport, with gorgeous floral gardens, brick paved rotundas and garden pathways framing the home with fairytale ambience. Homes like this rarely come to market in this tightly held district, especially those with development potential on an elevated corner, from a court that connects to beautiful parkland at Campbell's Croft, with shopping at nearby Eastland, Westfield Knox and Brentford Square, excellent access to respected public schools, and gateway connections from the city to the coast via Eastlink.
