Croydon 161 Dorset Road

Immerse yourself in the magnificence of 'Alsop House', a circa 1938 character residence, designed by Ruth Alsop, Victoria's first female architect.

Retaining all of its majesty, the home presents as good as the day it was built, proudly placed at the entrance of the Golf Links Estate. Privately screened by a picket fence and manicured hedges, the home possesses a prime, yet private disposition, with glorious garden expanses.

Welcomed by an automatic gated driveway and substantial off-street parking, the home exudes period charm; where three living zones and flexible accommodation are highlighted by tall ceilings, hardwood floorboards and intricate, original windows. Catering to both formal and casual occasions, it comprises spacious adjoining lounge and dining rooms, complemented by an open plan family and meals area with an open fireplace and twinset French doors, that link up with a covered entertaining deck that captures stunning garden and Mount Dandenong Ranges views. A large country-style kitchen is anchored at the heart of the home; featuring quality appliances, timber benchtops plus an abundance of preparation and storage space.

A divine master suite, with floor-to-ceiling built-in wardrobes and an en-suite effect bathroom, is accompanied by a study or additional bedroom with built-in wardrobes on the ground floor. Balanced by two upstairs bedrooms with built-in wardrobes, a bright second bathroom and a relaxing retreat area that boasts a built-in desk, cupboards and sweeping hills views.

Enriched with creature comforts, it contains a powder room, ducted heating, air conditioning and a remote double garage. Its superbly central location reaches buses and reserves on foot. Located only a short commute to schools, recreational facilities plus the popular shops, eateries and train stations of Croydon and Mooroolbark.
