St Kilda Elegance!

The story started in 2014 when this premium St Kilda location, with arguably one of the best aspects across the landscaped reserve, and up to the treasured Maungakawa Hills, was snapped up. From there, a home was designed that balanced functionality, with modern elegance. High gables and ceilings heights, and a calming white Linea exterior encapsulates all the character of a heritage homestead, with contemporary elements and design details.
The 286sqm (more or less) double glazed Downey Designer built home offers immaculate living, on a surprisingly low maintenance 1152sqm (more or less) flat section. A great yard to give pets or kids the run of the outside area, and plenty of room to follow through with the current owners' inground pool design if that has been on the wish list!
Ducted heating and cooling runs throughout the home, and a beautiful gas fireplace gives cooler days and cosy nights in, that much needed ambience.
The kitchen is serene, fresh and stylish with multiple pantry units, and a concealed scullery that entertainers will love to discover! A floor to ceiling window keeps this frequent and sociable hub of the home, filled with natural light and ensures that the stunning outlook is not wasted at any turn. Alfresco dining out under the covered portico will have you counting down the days until the balmy evenings are back, and a second bbq courtyard offers an additional option.
If there are kids or grandkids in tow, or if working from home is part of life, this home offers five double bedrooms, or four plus an office, bathrooms and ensuites with under tile heating and lots of storage, a separate laundry and extra garage width making way for a possible collection of bikes, or for some workshop space.
Become a regular at the St Kilda Cafe and Bistro just over the road, share a coffee or meal with friends while kids make the most of St Kilda's artificial turf sports court and playground, scooter track and board walks through the native reserve and wetlands. Exceptional home, sought after lifestyle, and a great alternative to building new. Its all done here, just step inside and make it your own.
