Hidden at the top of a secure gated driveway in a private garden setting, have your breath taken away as you discover this stunning five-bedroom residence that blends the charm of yesteryear with the luxuries expected of a home belonging to Donvale's elite acre precinct. Sprawled across 2.34 acres (approx.) of botanic bliss with rear access onto Mullum Mullum Creek, 'Girrawheen' is a family home for all seasons. Curl up in front of the open fireplace in winter and watch the world go by through the captivating Bay window in the elegant formal lounge room, and during spring, open the doors that connect the formal and communal living areas with the park-like grounds to allow sweet garden fragrances waft through the home. When the warmer months are in full swing, dive into the saltwater-chlorinated swimming pool or soak up the sunshine on a daybed beside the new pool gazebo, and play host to large-scale gatherings any time of year thanks to the presence of undercover and open-air entertaining areas. Framing verdant garden views from every room and the ranch-style front verandah, this immaculate residence also delights with its zoned single-level floorplan, where a dedicated accommodation wing comprising five spacious bedrooms and two renovated bathrooms of a high standard are well secluded from the timeless formal lounge and dining rooms and modern open-plan living zone in the heart of the home. Cooking with a scenic outlook adds to the attraction of the feature-packed kitchen that boasts a deluxe cast iron Ascot oven (with two ovens and a six gas-burner cooktop), while the integration between the radiant open-plan living area and large undercover deck with views presents a desirable indoor-outdoor entertaining centrepiece. Run your business from home in the versatile home office/studio, which boasts separate access should clients ever pop in for a visit, while a large renovated laundry with high quality fittings, Spotted Gum timber floors, plantation shutters, ducted vacuum, ducted heating, evaporative cooling, secure remote controlled gates, sealed driveway, renovated double garage with large workshop, double carport, reverse-cycle heating/cooling and a captivating fountain are assets that help set this home apart from the rest. An easy walk to Whitefriars College and buses and minutes to Tunstall Square, the Eastern Freeway/Eastlink and Mitcham train station, welcome to your forever home.
