7 Calembeena Avenue, Hughesdale, Vic 3166

In one of Hughesdale’s most coveted streets, this beautifully renovated four bedroom two bathroom timber Californian Bungalow has the soul of a family entertainer. Renovated in 2021 maintaining its period essence while creating an infusion of contemporary sophistication and family connection, this light filled home sparkles with feature skylights, designer pendants and Hamptons style finishes. Behind a white picket fence with established hedges and fruit trees scattered around the gardens, this engaging treasure features decked verandah, a wide entry hall, an elegant sitting room/fourth bedroom with bay window and open fireplace; a peaceful main bedroom with walk in robe and vogue ensuite; two further double bedrooms with robes, one with period fireplace, a sensational family bathroom and a huge laundry/mudroom with access to the oversized auto garage. A graceful transition between old and new, the timber and glass threshold door is a subtle acoustic barrier between the bedrooms and entry. The north facing open plan living and dining area where the double raked ceiling, gas log fire and stunning connection with the park like gardens takes centre stage. The white Hamptons style kitchen is accentuated with navy blue cabinetry in the uninterrupted island, 900mm appliances and extends into a butler’s pantry. Bi fold doors with retractable flyscreen opens to the partly covered composite deck with a mini football field to play endless hours of ball games and high leafy hedges and trees create sought after privacy. Designed for cross ventilation and solar passive warmth, this single level renovation is appointed with engineered Oak floors, high ceilings, picture rails, sash and sashless windows, gas instant hot water, ducted heating, air conditioning, ceiling fans, black tapware, floating joinery and plenty of driveway parking plus the garage.
