Balwyn North 3 Alpha Street

Welcome to a lifestyle, not just a home. One for aficionados of the mid-century genre, this 4 bedroom plus study treasure, designed in 1964 by highly regarded architect of the time John F Tipping, is in mainly original and excellently preserved condition.

Set in the original landscaped gardens of native plants and succulents with several magnificent eucalypts standing sentinel at its entry, this iconic residence is one of the few remaining quintessential mid-century homes of Balwyn North.

The entry is to a spacious hallway that becomes a wide gallery looking out over the large sun-filled "Palm Springs" style courtyard. Timber panelling is a highlight throughout the home and clerestory windows invite natural light.

Inside the front door, an intimate study provides a very private workspace. The main bedroom presents a WIR and fully tiled ensuite with original fittings. 3 further bedrooms have BIRs and are serviced by a practical arrangement of separate bathroom, shower room and WC in pristine, authentic condition.

Living/dining room and family room will offer options to suit a growing family. The kitchen has been sympathetically restored, retaining original features and gaining quality Miele cooking facilities.

Further features include laundry, double auto drive-through garage, alfresco entertaining space, split system reverse cycle air-conditioners in bedrooms and family room, gas hydronic slab heating, solar hot water and electricity generation, tinted windows and water collection tanks.

In the Balwyn High School Zone conveniently close to Greythorn Primary School, Greythorn Park and Gordon Barnard Reserve, Boroondara Sports Complex, city bus and tram, Eastern Freeway and Greythorn and Balwyn East Shopping Centres.
