Balwyn North 5 Wanbrow Avenue
MID CENTURY MODERNIST MAGIC
A picture of modernist magic, this iconic mid-century home was designed by renowned architect Alan Synman in 1973. Perfectly aligned to maximise the northern orientation and wide frontage of its substantial allotment, it sits surrounded by superbly landscaped gardens in a premier location in the sought-after Balwyn High School Zone.
The zoned living areas will suit families of all ages, complemented by a modernised kitchen, with a handy servery window out to the central alfresco courtyard, vibrant original bathrooms, and 3 bedrooms plus study/4th bedroom. An exceptional work from home opportunity exists in the home office/studio/gym with its own entry. This flexible area can easily be incorporated into the floorplan as a rumpus/entertainment room.
Immaculately maintained, the home is in mostly original condition. Changes that have been made are sympathetic to its original design and light and open environment. Contemporary families, professionals and creatives will join enthusiasts of the mid-century genre in appreciating this rare treasure.
Greythorn and St Bridget's Primary Schools are just a few minutes away. Buses run on Belmore Road to the CBD, Box Hill and Westfield Doncaster. It's a short drive to Eastern Freeway entry and an easy stroll to the shops, eateries and supermarket at Balwyn East Shopping Centre, with parks and sporting facilities nearby.
