Overview

7 Baxter Street, Elsternwick, 3185

Set behind a beautifully restored Edwardian facade and garden frontage, this substantial contemporary extension creates a spacious and connected layout. The home offers four bedrooms and two bathrooms with excellent family zoning, seamless indoor-outdoor flow, and sits on approximately 516 square meters in the peaceful suburb of Elsternwick.

Entering through a charming leadlight doorway and wide hallway, the home reveals generous, light-filled spaces across a single level. High ceilings and decorative period details pay homage to the home's heritage. The residence features three distinct living zones, providing flexibility and excellent zoning options. A north-facing formal living room, which can also serve as a fourth bedroom, includes an open fireplace and captures sunlight throughout the day. This room opens to an expansive living, dining, and entertaining area at the rear of the home.

Natural light flows through to the decked, covered alfresco dining area and a private rear garden, which is framed by established hedging and offers a secure space for children to play. The kitchen is finished with bespoke timber cabinetry, stone benchtops, and a full suite of Smeg appliances. It flows onto a scullery and laundry for added convenience. An additional living room at the rear provides further versatility, suitable as an extended living area or a private home office with ample storage.

Two well-proportioned bedrooms feature built-in robes; one includes an open fireplace and the other a desk nook. These bedrooms are serviced by a sleek main bathroom with a separate bath. The larger main suite offers a private retreat, opening to a tranquil courtyard and featuring a walk-through robe and stylish ensuite.

Additional comforts include hydronic heating, split-system air conditioning, ducted vacuum, plantation shutters, and abundant storage. Secure off-street parking for two vehicles is provided behind motorised gates. This move-in-ready home is located in a leafy streetscape just moments from Glenhuntly Road’s cafes and shops, Hopetoun Gardens, leading schools, and convenient transport links.
