The classical period character of this 4 bedroom, mid-century period home has been sensitively modernised by a comprehensive extension and renovation, to present a family home with a bold open-plan and alfresco entertainers' spirit. Perfectly positioned for family life in the zone for the Box Hill High School, the home is also within easy reach of Box Hill Central Shopping Centre and city-bound public transport. A free-flowing home that fills with natural sunlight, it culminates at the rear in a generous open-plan living area that is underpinned by a gourmet kitchen with vast stone benches and premium appliances that include a SMEG oven / cooktop. Effortlessly, the flow continues outdoors to an undercover dining area with an electric awning, a spa and outdoor heater for year-round alfresco entertaining. Meanwhile, a formal lounge at the front of the home is arranged around a traditional fireplace that can readily be reinstated as operational to provide ambient warmth. Each of the bedrooms is generously sized with ample robe storage - walk-in robes in a master suite that also comes with a private ensuite. Importantly, a remote access lock-up garage and a double carport are set behind secure gates to accommodate 3 vehicles, plus there is a workshop at the rear of the property. A comprehensive list of thoughtful inclusions extend to ducted heating, evaporative cooling and ducted vacuum, as well as fresh carpets in the bedrooms, a family-size laundry and CCTV surveillance. Peacefully positioned near Gardiners Creek parkland and RHL Sparks Reserve, the home is just a short walk from ALDI and local buses, while all the cosmopolitan cafes, restaurants and shopping of Box Hill Central Shopping Central are just moments away with trams along Whitehorse Rd and trains from Box Hill Railway Station.
