Positioned in arguably St Kilda East's most sought-after street, and overflowing with graceful period charm which is only matched by the stunning north-facing garden and entertainer's courtyard at the rear, this marvelous and private 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom family residence is an enchanting and unforgettable single level star!
Murchison Street has long been the place to live in St Kilda East, with its shaded mature tree-lined outlook and streetscape of heritage protected homes (many that were built in the early 1900s, with the street featuring a heritage overlay). This immaculate original has origins dating back to 1920, and still retains some of its beautiful classic detail from exquisite leadlight windows to a warming open fireplace and gorgeous high ceilings.
Elegant dark timber floors introduce themselves at the entry and carry you all the way into the formal dining room with the aforementioned OFP, as well as the generous living room with built-in shelving. This living room has access to a charming retreat, which is perfect to be a home office or a reading nook where you can take in views of the private hedged garden at the front. In fact, the flow and floorplan of the property means you get leafy views from almost every angle!
An expansive family room towards the home's northern rear is the perfect place to sit on a Sunday morning and read the newspaper, with this space perfectly capturing the sunlight and vistas of the picturesque rear garden. A stylish kitchen has space for casual meals and promises stainless steel benchtops, Franke double sink, and AEG/Bosch/Fisher & Paykel appliances. All bedrooms have a relaxed feel including one of the bedrooms which enjoys a hidden foldaway bed and built-in desk and shelving ensuring it could also be a home office. All bedrooms also have easy access to 2 stylish contemporary bathrooms.
The exceptional north-facing landscaped garden and courtyard boasts a veggie garden and shed, while other property extras include laundry facilities, hydronic heating, reverse cycle cooling, large storage closet, NBN ready, and off-street parking with remote security gate.
