Ringwood East 72 Heathwood Street

Welcome to 1960's modernist Australia, where for the first time in 60 years, we offer you a treasured family home of memories and mesmerising mid-century architecture. Designed to borrow the landscape of the neighbouring park and properties, the home embraces its own bushland setting with native gardens and spreading lawn all attracting abundant birdlife.

Built to capture light and views, the unique Tasmanian oak and pine panelled exterior is replicated on feature walls within, and is complemented by polished floors and wall-to-wall sunlight with vistas to the Mt Dandenong Ranges. Sun-splashed living, dining and sitting rooms supply abundant family space - resting either side and unified by an original kitchen with electric cooking. Four bedrooms with copious amounts of built-in storage take care of accommodation; the deluxe master boasting an en-suite and benefiting from stunning garden aspects. The other bedrooms share an original bathroom and separate toilet. A large laundry/utility room, perfect for hobbies and craft pursuits, is partitioned from the living areas by an original barn door.

A piece of Ringwood East history, the Gardner Puppet Theatre was run for 40 years from one of the backyard's bright his/hers bungalows-hers with running water and a secondary room. Now both offering the versatility to be utilised as a man cave, workshop, utility space or artist studio. An additional tool storage and workshop is located beneath the master bedroom wing.

A covered deck provides a relaxing place to sit and admire the scenery, with the birds and views to Mount Dandenong to be enjoyed in good company. Additionally, there is a covered patio with sink that could be incorporated within a clever outdoor kitchen transformation.

Further enhancements include: generous indoor and under-house storage, gas ducted heating, air conditioning, dual crossovers plus an extra-height double carport that replicates the roofline and can easily fit a boat or caravan. Under-deck storage was designed to store a dinghy.

An amenity-rich location completes the picture; placing the home within walking distance to buses, Wombolano Park, strip shops (East Ringwood and Heathmont), and to Eastwood and Heathmont East Primary Schools. Only minutes from Ringwood East and Heathmont Train Stations along with Eastland Shopping Village, recreational facilities and reputable secondary schools; including Tintern Grammar, Aquinas College, Yarra Valley Grammar and zoned Ringwood Secondary College.
