PARKSIDE EDWARDIAN IN PRIZED GLENFERRIE LOCATION
Directly abutting Central Gardens (Hawthorn’s famous Rocket Park) at the rear, charming Lenna c.1910, has been stylishly renovated to provide a spacious four bedroom, two bathroom family home with the highly coveted area rarity of off-street parking for three cars.
Perfectly peaceful and private with tranquil leafy views throughout, its versatile accommodation is ideal for busy, lifestyle focused living with its landscaped low maintenance parcel enjoying direct parkland access and walking convenience to Glenferrie Road, leading private schools, Swinburne University, excellent public transport and a host of other amenities.
Set back amidst the charm of its prized period home lined street, a landscaped feature garden frames an elegant brick façade behind which a traditional fretworked hall connects three original rooms that retain their high ceilings and enchanting open fireplaces. These include a superb front bedroom with lead light windows, currently used as a home office / sitting room, and two bright bedrooms with built-in robes accompanied by a full family bathroom and laundry.
At the rear, architecturally extended modern areas expand out against a backdrop of lush tree top views hosting generous open plan living and dining areas with a stone finished contemporary gourmet kitchen, a private deck for alfresco entertaining and an upstairs parents' retreat that enjoys a generous bedroom with extensive built-in robes, ensuite and tranquil parkland views.
