Sited on a double-fronted block, this builder's-own freestanding Edwardian has been superbly renovated and extended with uncompromised comfort and craftsmanship throughout its single-level design. The original façade has been retained and the interior transformed only 12 months ago into a spectacular contemporary domain perfectly attuned to modern lifestyle desires. With high ceilings carried throughout, the home's impressively proportioned floorplan showcases a show-stopping living and dining room with a luxurious amount of space, endless streams of natural light, and soaring sloped ceilings adding fantastic vertical volume. There's also a wood heater to unwind in idyllic fashion during those cooler months. Anchoring the lofty airy space is a sky-lit gourmet kitchen making it easy to indulge your culinary skills thanks to its precision functionality and the high-end inclusions of a centerpiece island bench/breakfast, white marble surfaces, Blum cabinetry, dual pyrolytic ovens, induction and gas cooktops, fridge plumbing provision, and a butler's pantry with additional sink. At the front of the home, the five-star main bedroom offers a private retreat with a window seat and a walk-through robe to a sensational ensuite bathroom with double shower and twin vanities. Three additional bedrooms are serviced by an equally stylish family bathroom with bathtub and shower. A peaceful north-facing deck and rear garden offer exceptional alfresco entertaining and relaxation complemented by the rustic brick and black cladding adorning the rear façade. The residence also benefits from a fitted home office which can be closed off for working without distraction, a full laundry room, 16kw ducted reverse-cycle heating and cooling, floor heating in the two bathrooms, extensive 8 x3 m plastered roof storage, top-of-the-range 6mm European Oak floorboards, high-quality wool carpets, Franke tapware, CCTV security, built-in speakers indoors and out, and prized off-street parking for two cars. Giving it a 'brand-new edge, the home has also been rewired, replumbed and reinsulated and fitted with a new sewer, storm water and roof. Stroll in any direction to find a fantastic selection of lifestyle amenities, including Elwood Primary and College, St Columba's Primary School, Brighton Road trams, Tennyson Village, Ripponlea Village and Station, Elsternwick Park, St Kilda Botanical Gardens, and Elwood Beach.
