An elegant blend of period style, modern luxury, and light-filled family space, this four-bedroom plus study home enjoys an idyllic suburban lifestyle in a peaceful tree-lined street. Situated paces from leading schools including Emmaus College, the playground recreation at Devere Gardens, and Davy Lane Reserve, the home is primed for a blissful family lifestyle, while minutes from Forest Hill Chase and Vermont South shopping centres, city-bound trams, and Nunawading station.

Exuding Victorian charm, the home is adorned by ceiling rosettes, ornate arches, and leadlight windows, enriched by the best of today’s modern comforts. Formal lounge and dining rooms lie adjacent for refined entertaining, showered in light by day from a boxed bay window and cosied by night by a cast-iron open fire.

Nurturing daily living and relaxation, a spacious family room adjoins a casual dining room and kitchen, each stretching onto a northerly patio amid sculpted gardens for sunny barbecue entertaining. Dressed in gleaming American Oak, the kitchen hosts family and friends across a wide hostess island, while offering a full appointment of appliances and plenty of storage for easy catering.

Upstairs, a lavish master bedroom indulges parental retreat, providing a fitted walk-in robe, a luxurious spa-ensuite, and a private terrace with peaceful horizon views. Three secondary bedrooms accommodate rest and study beside built-in robes, serviced by an elegant bathroom with a separate WC. Complete with a home office or guest suite, a laundry, and an internal-access double garage, this charming family home is coddled in comfort, including ducted heating, evaporative cooling, ducted vacuum, and security alarm.
