Sophistication, innovation & crisp designer lines are cornerstones of this exquisitely renovated residence providing a stunning contemporary response to today’s lifestyle. Perfectly sized as is, a growing family may extend in time (STCA) or even empty nesters can downsize without the compromise. A pebbled path leads to the front door with low set windows heralding voluminous open plan living spaces with a serenity all its own. Illuminated living & dining are served by the streamlined galley style kitchen with engineered stone benches including a big breakfast bar, a combination of white & timber cabinetry for a point of difference & a suite of Siemens appliances. Beyond, sliding doors stack neatly into a wall & reveal a north facing garden with a picturesque canopy of established trees overhanging a deck & paved area - & as part of the original Rippon Lea Estate, it’s one of the only original trees left. Dotted with period features such as high ceilings with roses & original dark stained floorboards, the accommodation includes the main bedroom further illustrating chic design with a backboard of mirrors & cleverly placed timber shelving, built-in wardrobes & a sumptuous ensuite with a frameless open shower & unique marble topped vanity. Two double bedrooms are fitted with extensive built-in wardrobes, one a desk & shelving, concluding with a stylish main bathroom with a bath. A full laundry, double glazed windows & doors, split system, central heating & cooling, an alarm with security cameras, secure electric gate & excellent storage only add to the allure. In a highly desirable location of perpetual appeal, it’s a minute’s walk to Ripponlea Village with its renown restaurants, cafes, boutique stores, train station, Ripponlea Gardens, Caulfield Grammar & Ripponlea primary school, you’re also in the Elwood primary & secondary zones & different modes of transport to the CBD & the likes of Monash Caulfield.
