Balwyn 152 Balwyn Road
The 1930s at their most splendid
With its broad frontage facing Winmalee Road, this imposing circa 1938 double storey brick residence was clearly built to the highest standards and since maintained and updated to maintain the style to which its owners are accustomed. The detailing of the elaborate solid plaster work and other architectural details is a pleasure to inspect and reflects both the original attention to detail and subsequent lifetime of care devoted to this home.
Set in mature easily maintained landscaped gardens - a source of pleasure throughout the year - the home's immaculate rooms feature high ceilings and include a formal reception room with gleaming dark stained timber floors, an open fireplace and French doors to a terrace. Adjacent but on a higher level is a charming air-conditioned sitting room / retreat with a sunny outlook over the garden; a basement gym/retreat is an unexpected bonus. The dining room with a northern bay window adjoins the sparkling white kitchen-meals area and air-conditioned family room with a Georgian window wall to the garden. There are excellent bathrooms on both floors, one semi-ensuite to the main bedroom, plus 2 more bedrooms and a study area. The property also includes gas ducted heating, strategically positioned split system air-conditioners downstairs and ducted air-conditioning upstairs, and a remote operated double garage.
Near a bus stop and local shops, with quick access to parkland and swimming pool, in the Balwyn High School Zone, this is a grand property with splendid features.
