Nestled in the foothills of Mount Dandenong near the Dorset Golf Course, this captivating character home blends timeless cottage appeal with stylish modern touches. From the moment you arrive, the property charms with a private front yard shaded by a majestic oak tree and a chimney beautifully draped in leafy ivy, setting the scene for the warmth found within. Ideally suited for first homebuyers, it offers a sanctuary of style and comfort.
Inside, the home preserves its original soul through polished floorboards, cottage windows, and a living area defined by rich timber wall panelling and an original open stone fireplace. This rustic charm flows effortlessly into the modernized kitchen, which features a hint of character with stone benchtops, a gas cooktop, and a striking metal pendant feature light.
Accommodation comprises three spacious bedrooms, all finished with fresh charcoal carpets and ample storage. The home also features a convenient separate powder room, while the central bathroom is a true luxury retreat, showcasing a freestanding extra-deep bath with claw feet and a rainfall waterfall shower fixture. Split system cooling and heating ensures year-round comfort.
The outdoor spaces are equally enchanting, featuring a quaint cottage garden with manicured hedges and an easy-care lawn. The wisteria-covered patio provides a dreamy spot for alfresco dining or a quiet coffee. Complete with a single carport and a small garden shed, the home is incredibly well-connected. Palm Grove Preschool is around the corner, while St Richards, Gladesville, and Kilsyth Primary Schools are all within walking distance.
