1/162 Glen Iris Road

In a prized corner position, privately set back behind a gated entrance, a beautifully conceived renovation has harnessed the grandeur of this classic residence and transformed it into a contemporary light filled haven. Stained glass, leadlight and curvilinear bay windows remain as trademark period signatures, while exquisite bespoke cabinetry, rich timber floors and a synergetic interior palette confirm a renovation of genuine distinction. A generous lounge room and a formal dining zone features brick fireplaces, creating elegant spaces for living and entertaining. The open plan family room, warmed by a gas fireplace, flows seamlessly through double glazed sliding doors to a north facing stone patio and pergola, with landscaped garden borders and an outdoor fireplace. A study also takes in an outlook to the garden. The kitchen is a triumph of form and function, centred around a vast marble island and appointed with a suite of Siemens appliances and a well-considered butler's pantry. Stunning marble accents carry through to the bathrooms, where finishes are immaculate throughout. A dedicated laundry completes the service accommodation. The primary bedroom is a true retreat, a generous bay windowed sanctuary with a walk in robe and a luxurious ensuite. Three further light filled bedrooms enjoy lovely leafy outlooks from the first floor, plus built in robes and access to a beautifully appointed bathroom featuring a freestanding bath. Features include new timber floors, new carpets, two powder rooms, an outdoor shed and off street parking for two cars. Footsteps from Glen Iris Primary and an easy walk to the Glen Iris Pantry, Gardiners Creek and Back Creek trails, Ferndale Park and the playing fields beyond, the location connects effortlessly to Korowa, Sacré Cur, Caulfield Grammar Junior and St Cecilia's Primary, with Glen Waverley line trains, buses to Kew and Hawthorn private schools, Coles Local, High Street Ashburton, Camberwell Junction, Chadstone Shopping Centre and the Monash Freeway all within easy reach.
