Woven into the fabric of this fully renovated family sanctuary is the tranquillity, privacy and scenic beauty you’ve come to expect from one of Eltham’s most peaceful neighbourhoods. Nestled at the top of a long tree-lined driveway reminiscent of a private country lane, this park-like hideaway on a fully landscaped 6,736 sqm (approx.) allotment delivers the lifestyle benefits of a rural setting with the convenience of being within minutes of Eltham Hotel, Main Rd shops and cafes, Eltham train station, the scenic Diamond Creek Trail, Eltham East Primary School and Eltham High School. Freshly painted and immaculately renovated with brand new bathrooms, kitchen, timber floorboards, entertaining deck and double-glazed windows, the fashionable split-level, five-bedroom interior is essentially brand new and allows you to move straight in without a worry in the world. In case any worries do enter your state of being, melt them away in front of the open fireplace whilst savouring the leafy aspect from the elegant formal lounge and dining area, set beneath a towering cathedral ceiling. The interior’s connection with its scenic surrounds is also fully embraced by the central open-plan meals/kitchen area, which expands onto the all-seasons deck and enclosed lagoon-style swimming pool to create a sensational indoor-outdoor entertaining centrepiece. Waterfall stone benchtops, 900mm Smeg stainless steel appliances, loads of storage and a large walk-in pantry delivers style and functionality to the gourmet kitchen, while a large rumpus room (with a second open fireplace) can become your home media haven or games retreat — it’s so versatile! Four excellent bedrooms (guest bedroom with walk-in robe and modern ensuite) are zoned on the first floor with a luxurious family bathroom, while the superb master bedroom resides in total privacy on the home’s top floor. Boasting a vast sleeping area, built-in robes, walk-in robe and stylish ensuite with a frameless walk-in shower, it’s the ultimate parents’ retreat. An enclosed vegetable garden with a greenhouse is a haven for the garden enthusiast and captures the very essence of Eltham's sustainable culture, while lush lawns, abundant off-street parking, ducted heating, split-system cooling and a sleek laundry complete the appeal of this fabulous family hideaway, which achieves the kind of lifestyle balance that’s always sought yet seldom found.
