Captivating Ivanhoe Hill Corner Californian

SOLD By Miles Real Estate.
A prized Ivanhoe Hill corner position with a coveted north-facing rear garden and copious off-street parking creates an air of excitement around this enchanting Californian Bungalow delivering a superbly flexible, family-focused environment enhanced by timeless period character and modern comfort.

'Ngaire' c1927 is privately set behind a picturesque façade on the corner of Linden Avenue and with a richly detailed interior framed by polished floorboards and high ceilings presents a series of captivating rooms offering perfect adaptability for living and accommodation.

A wide central hallway sets a charming tone flowing to two bedrooms, including the main with a stylish ensuite and second with a tuckpointed brick OFP, as well as a versatile formal sitting room or an extra bedroom with a ceiling fan, open fireplace and a seated bay window. An additional bedroom with built-in robes is located by a beautiful big family bathroom (separate bathtub and a shower) and a large laundry.

Evoking a bygone era with its timber panelling and bow bay window is a glorious formal dining room that leads through to a spacious family living room and an excellent Neff-appointed kitchen highlighted by a stone-topped breakfast island, ASKO dishwasher and a smart soft-close storage system.

The exceptional benefits continue outside with a secluded and sun-drenched, north-facing rear sanctuary featuring an undercover entertainment deck (Heatstrip, speakers), flourishing garden and lawn, lock-up shed and even a basketball area, while dual crossovers from Banksia Street and Linden Avenue allow for multi-vehicle off-street parking.

Coupled with ducted heating, evaporative cooling and an alarm system, 'Ngaire' is a wonderful home that offers absolute comfort now and outstanding prospects for grander plans (STCA) on a 669m2 allotment (approx) near Ivanhoe's boutique restaurant and shopping precinct, Burgundy Street, Austin Hospital, train station, schools and parkland.
