Box Hill 915 Canterbury Road, Near Arcadia Street

Displaying a high-quality renovation, extension and meticulous period restorations, this double-fronted 1920s Edwardian home is an effortless fusion of classic and contemporary design. This comprehensive renovation was also recognised by the City of Whitehorse, winning an Urban Design Award for "Best exterior renovation". The spacious floorplan boasts 3 bedrooms, study and 2 bathrooms enhanced by 2 living areas and the period features of high ceilings and skirting boards, fretwork, ornate cornices, picture rails, ceiling roses, Baltic Pine floors and 3 open fire places. The flexible formal lounge room is a sophisticated retreat with an open fireplace, with the north-facing informal living zone stepping out to a covered merbau deck, ideal for effortless entertaining. A versatile study offers bi-fold doors for privacy from the family room. The gourmet kitchen is brilliantly-appointed, featuring Caesar Stone benches, Smeg upright cooker, plus loads of drawer and cupboard space. Concealed lighting behind the overhead cupboards creates a 'Wow factor' against the glass splashbacks and the deck is similarly illuminated. Servicing the 3 robed bedrooms is a period-style main bathroom with a cast iron claw foot bath, the adjacent toilet doubling as a powder room, whilst the master bedroom with a walk-in wardrobe boasts an exquisite modern ensuite. Further appointments: Back-to-base security and fire alarms, reverse cycle split system, ducted heating, surround sound with Bose speakers, automatic double garage with plumbing, filtered water, water tank and abundant storage including an accessible attic. Two sets of gates create an extension of the backyard, with a high front fence adding to the privacy in this convenient locale, close to transport, Surrey Park and Box Hill Central.
