Overview

Set within a tranquil and community-minded pocket of Footscray, this elegantly updated Californian residence merges classic character with modern comforts, offering a versatile and turnkey lifestyle tailored to families at every stage.

The home's design thoughtfully separates living and private quarters to maximize convenience and comfort. The expansive ground floor includes three generously sized bedrooms, ample storage within robes, a luxurious master suite with ensuite, and a substantial main bathroom featuring a spa bath combined with an integrated laundry. Upstairs, the layout caters perfectly to children or guests with two additional bedrooms accompanied by built-in robes, a gabled-ceiling retreat, and a cleverly positioned third bathroom.

Original Baltic pine flooring gracefully transitions to solid hardwood floors, accentuating the blend of heritage and contemporary styles. Central to the home is the living and dining area, built around a striking stone-topped ILVE/Asko kitchen, where natural light streams through sheer window treatments. Stacker glass doors blur indoor and outdoor boundaries, creating an inviting space ideal for entertaining on a large scale.

The low-maintenance gardens enveloping the property provide a safe and enjoyable backyard for young children, complemented by Heatstrips and a covered veranda enhancing the outdoor barbecue and alfresco area. Other notable features include ducted heating and cooling, under-stair and roof storage, plantation shutters, a workshop-sized shed, and secure driveway parking.

Positioned close to local amenities, the property is footsteps from a bowls club and playground, zoned for Footscray High School, and near picturesque Footscray Park. Educational and health facilities such as Victoria University and the new Footscray Hospital are within close reach. Efficient public transport options, including the 82 Tram, connect residents swiftly to Highpoint Shopping Centre, aquatic facilities, and central Footscray, while nearby recreational and sporting venues enrich the lifestyle offering.
