AVONDALE HEIGHTS

THE DEAL

Between the river and shops to blend leafy calm with lifestyle verve, this visionary take on architectural luxe is tailor-made for a family to enjoy instantly, grow into, and make memories in one of the best homes the suburb has ever seen.

Past its signature white brickwork and timber pivot door, interiors strike an inspired balance between refined opulence and practical elegance. A double-height stair void sets a tone of space and grandeur continued throughout, with a wonderful back section a dream for entertaining. Stacker glass reveals an north-facing yard that hits its stride in summer months, with any occasion catered for by a dream-kitchen boasting profuse cabinetry, stone surfaces, an oversized walk-in pantry, integrated fridge/freezer, and top-of-the-range Smeg oven, induction cooktop, rangehood, and dishwasher.

With the utmost care given to every last detail, a ground-floor guest room enjoys an ensuite and extensive robe space to complement a second-storey master with a raked ceiling, chic ensuite, walk-in robe, and sweeping vistas. Robe-lined third/fourth bedrooms are served by a lavish main bathroom, while a large retreat gives teenagers their own space to claim. Other highlights include heating/cooling with individual room controls, engineered oak floors, masses of storage, sleek wall curves, soft carpets, brushed nickel tapware, a sizeable laundry, downstairs powder room, double garage, and extra driveway parking.

A mere 200m from Avondale Primary, 400m from the local Coles, and 550m from Military Road for great coffee and diverse cuisine, it’s no more than a short stroll to parkland, sporting fields, the river trail, and buses bound for Milleara and Highpoint shops, with Essendon’s elite schooling, city trams, and major freeways all nearby.
