Sitting pretty as a picture on an elevated 905sqm (approx.) allotment, this beautiful c1931 Arts and Crafts home has been built on family memories for close to 100 years. Designed by architect J. F. W. Ballantyne on the street where he lived, the home offers tremendous scope in a coveted locale close to elite schools, shopping, and transport.

Set well back on the block beyond motorised gates, the home welcomes guests over a broad clinker-brick patio. The interior blends its youthful Arts and Crafts character with modern style, combining sleek Oak floorboards, solid plastering, and exposed beams.

The formal lounge room is filled with northerly light and garden views by day, while cosying family and friends by an open fireside by night. The dining room fits the largest of tables for vibrant family feasts, while the family room hosts movie nights together. At the heart of the home, the kitchen is dressed in stone benches, providing a central breakfast island along with ample storage and a full suite of Smeg and Asko appliances.

A brick patio extends from the family room, set amid leafy low-maintenance garden beds, indulging barbecue celebrations beneath a shower of northern sun.

The accommodation offers two lavishly sized bedrooms with wardrobes to the front of the home, along with a dedicated home office with built-in desk, and a luxe fully tiled bathroom. A later extension provides a further two bedrooms at the back of the home, serviced by a central bathroom and a large laundry.

Complete with a double carport, plus a garage and workshop, the home assures modern comfort with ducted heating, split system air-conditioning, security alarm and CCTV.

Situated Malvern’s most sought-after hotspots, the home is a leisurely walk to Malvern Road’s eateries and shopping, Gardiners Creek walking trail, plus three tram lines and Tooronga Station. Minutes from Tooronga Village and Glenferrie Road shopping, plus the Monash arterial, the area has everything within reach, while surrounded by Melbourne’s best schools including Auburn High School, Scotch College, Bialik College, De La Salle College, and Lauriston Girls’ School.
