Once inside the contemporary interiors of this spacious family home, the world outside becomes a distant memory! Private and very well planned, the smart opportunity - on 609sqm (approx) - offers well over 30 squares of living space and is metres to a pedestrian crossing, playground and buses. Screened behind an auto gate, high ceilings and warm Spotted Gum floors provide the first welcome and flow past a front sitting room to the oversized living/dining zone to the rear. Hosts will love the huge stone kitchen where there is masses of quality cabinetry, a walk-in pantry and sparkling European appliances including a large DeLonghi wine fridge, while bi-fold doors can be thrown back to connect indoors with a sheltered alfresco area complete with outdoor kitchen (BBQ, sink & fridge) - as the adults relax here, the kids can play on the securely-fenced lawn. The downstairs master with walk-thru robes to the luxury ensuite will prove a popular inclusion - upstairs are four more superbly generous bedrooms, three with desks and all offering ample wardrobing. A retreat on this level is the ideal homeworking or TV space; a chic family bathroom and separate WC completes this level while rounding off the floorplan are a downstairs powder room, large laundry and considerable storage. With ducted heating/evaporative cooling and a split system, this wholly satisfying property includes a 10KW solar power system, a garden shed and double carport. Within moments of Mentone's shopping options, cafes and station, this prime position is an easy trip to the beach and quality schooling and in-zone for both Mentone Girls' and Cheltenham secondary colleges.
