43b Catherine Road, Bentleigh East, Vic 3165

Brand new and architecturally designed, this exceptional residence delivers more than 35 squares of refined family living on a generous 356sqm (approx.) allotment-substantially larger than the average townhouse site. Striking design, abundant natural light and impressive proportions combine to create a truly standout home. Unlike many new builds that simply satisfy minimum planning requirements, this home has been intelligently designed to maximise the full width of the allotment, resulting in substantially larger downstairs living areas and a floorplan that offers genuine family-sized proportions. Combined with a prized north-facing rear aspect, every design decision has been made to maximise space, functionality and everyday liveability.

Beyond the front door, you're immediately greeted by an inviting formal living room centred around an electric fireplace, framed by dramatic ceiling heights ranging from 3 to 3.3 metres. At the heart of the home, a beautifully landscaped central courtyard forms a stunning architectural feature, while multiple carefully positioned skylights, expansive glazing and the larger allotment work together with the north-facing orientation to flood the interiors with natural light and create an incredible sense of openness. The result is a home that feels remarkably bright, spacious and connected, with sunlight filtering through the living spaces throughout the day.

The heart of the home is equally impressive, with an expansive open-plan kitchen, dining and family domain designed for effortless entertaining and everyday family living. Appointed with a suite of premium Miele appliances including a gas cooktop, integrated rangehood, dual electric ovens and a fully integrated dishwasher, the kitchen is complemented by a 90cm Fisher & Paykel integrated French door refrigerator/freezer. Engineered oak flooring, elegant sheer curtains and premium finishes complete a space that is both sophisticated and highly functional.

Designed with growing families in mind, the home offers exceptional flexibility with three separate living zones, including two downstairs living areas, a dedicated study and a third upstairs retreat, providing space for everyone to work, relax and unwind. Ducted heating and cooling, double-glazed windows and luxurious wool carpets to the bedrooms ensure year-round comfort and energy efficiency.

Accommodation comprises four generous bedrooms, each fitted with built-in robes, including a privately positioned master suite complete with a beautifully appointed ensuite. Outside, the north-facing paved entertaining area provides the perfect setting for weekend barbecues and family gatherings, complete with a gas BBQ connection ready for effortless outdoor entertaining.

Practicality has also been carefully considered, with a secure single garage featuring a premium Dulux Avista flake flooring system, an exposed aggregate driveway and additional off-street parking for a second vehicle.

Perfectly positioned directly opposite Bentleigh Secondary College, this outstanding residence also enjoys one of Bentleigh East's most desirable lifestyle locations. Stroll to the vibrant Centre Road shopping precinct, where an outstanding selection of cafés, restaurants, boutiques and everyday conveniences await. Occupying the prized pocket of Bentleigh East that borders Bentleigh, this is a location celebrated for its café culture, walkability and exceptional family appeal-offering a lifestyle every bit as impressive as the home itself.
