From its prominent 580sqms (approx.) corner in the school catchment for Vermont Secondary College and Mt Pleasant Rd Primary (STSA), this renovated weatherboard perfectly blends vintage charm with modern finesse. Lovely big windows framed in plantation window shutters present views of the gardens and the leafy streetscape on Eugenia, which means 'noble'. It's a setting that looks and feels like a country cottage, but surprises with its extended floor plan to include 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and a living and dining space zoned by a dramatic slat divider. Framed by beautiful standard roses, a front verandah and Colorbond fencing, the refreshed interior retains the character of high ceilings and hardwood floors, adding elegant marble and terrazzo inspired tiling in the kitchen and bathrooms, as well as the comfort of central heating and Daikin air con. A huge 16-panel solar array provides low-cost energy, powering the split system heating/cooling and an induction cooktop in the showcase kitchen. With entry via gates on Diosma Cres, the home also features a freestanding garage suited as a gym, home office or separate living space. Superbly located in walking distance to Mt Pleasant Rd Primary, Nunawading train station, parks, playgrounds, cafes, and medical clinics, with nearby shopping at Forest Hill Chase, Brentford Square and The Glen, and connections further afield via the Eastern Fwy and Eastlink.
