Park, Sunshine and Charm

Surrounded by bird-filled trees and greenery, this really charming four-bedroom home is set in a wide, quiet and friendly street with the home’s big north-facing rear garden opening directly onto Cruickshank Park.

This light-filled, generously sized home with its beautiful façade has been lovingly maintained offering the ideal family home in a leafy garden oasis setting.  Grab your morning coffee from one of the cool cafés at the end of the street. Lively Yarraville Village is close at hand, an off-street dog park, kindergarten and primary school are all within walking distance across the creek’s footbridge.

Facade & Front Garden

A gentle path curls through this very pretty front garden with well-established fruit trees, shrubs and flowers providing a friendly effect. A gated side drive access offers extra room to move and play outdoors and the potential to increase off-street-parking. The neat, covered front verandah really sets off the home’s façade beautifully and with a sense of comfort that says, ‘Welcome home’.

Entrance

Period sash windows open to the street view. Enter through the frosted glass front door into the central hallway, along which are the four bedrooms.

Bedrooms

This home has four generously sized bedrooms – or three with one as a dedicated study. The Master Bedroom features a wonderful decorative fireplace – a pleasant reminder of the home’s history. Period sash windows in both front bedrooms are screened with elegant plantation shutters. All of the bedrooms have decorative ceilings, cornices and picture rails. The polished wooden floorboards are a lovely feature that continues throughout the home.

Living & Dining

The hallway opens onto a light filled open plan living/dining room. You’ll enjoy the satisfying feeling of sitting back and relaxing at the very centre of your home. The warm polished floorboards offer low maintenance and create a cosy atmosphere. The dining area is flooded with light from a large bay window which overlooks the back garden and the park. An idyllic place to sit for breakfast among the birds singing in the trees.

Bathroom

The well-maintained bathroom is both calm and serene. Featuring a separate shower, timber vanity with mirrored cabinet – at the end of a long day, what could be nicer than having a relaxing soak in this beautiful reproduction claw foot bathtub?

Kitchen

This very spacious kitchen has a charming, relaxed feeling. Featuring a generous, wrap-around bench top, it has plenty of storage space plus a big pantry ready to be stocked with all your favourites. The Technika oven and gas cooktop can cater to the largest of gatherings. While you are busy at the big double sink, you can enjoy a great view of the garden and the park, through the elegant double-width sliding windows. The open plan layout allows the cook to still be connected to any activity in the living area.

Laundry

The large dedicated laundry room opens conveniently onto the back porch and the washing line. There is also a second separate powder room to the main bathroom enclosed in this space.

Outdoor Backdrop

Double doors open onto a covered entertaining verandah, and then you’ll step down into your generous backyard, which is a green oasis full of birds and wildlife (look up to see both the ‘Possum Hotel’ and the ‘Pigeon Motel’ nestled in the trees).

Entertain friends under the fantastic Pergola and outdoor seating area or on the open grassed area which is perfect for playing under the shady tree, surrounded by landscaped garden beds. The raised veggie and herb gardens will delight all the cooks of the house and a generous garden shed stands ready to securely store your items.

What is the real joy in any park-lover’s crown, is the gate which opens directly onto Cruickshank Park. For morning walks, afternoon strolls along Stony Creek, or for the kids to get to Kingsville Primary without the need to cross a main road or just to play in the playground only metres from home – a truly special feature.
