20 Mackennel Street, Ivanhoe East, Vic 3079

A peaceful lifestyle pocket that's highly prized for its position by the Yarra River and easy access to amenities is the serene setting for this light and airy modern family residence on an expansive 973m2 garden allotment (approx.). Architect-designed and custom-built to exacting standards, this superb quality Daniel Robertson brick home oriented north extends over a flowing single-level capturing beautiful garden aspects from every room in an entirely secluded and sunlit sanctuary. Wide passageways link impeccably presented spaces with banks of glazing throughout a perfectly zoned interior complemented by high ceilings, polished hardwood floorboards, ducted gas heating and ducted refrigerated cooling. Large separate lounge, dining and living rooms provide absolute comfort for a discerning family with a central gourmet kitchen boasting Miele and Bosch stainless-steel appliances plus granite benchtops and a walk-in pantry. The layout's design puts focus on the garden while also creating family harmony with its parents' retreat (walk-in robe, frameless-glass shower ensuite) beside a versatile study and a dedicated children's wing including three king-size bedrooms (built-in robes) and an immaculate family bathroom (separate shower and deep spa bath). There's also a powder room, a fully-functional laundry, ample fitted storage plus a huge oversized double remote-control garage with space for a workshop and internal access. Secure and established north-facing landscaped surroundings are private and picturesque featuring alfresco veranda with automatic sun blinds, expansive lawn and a tranquil granite cascade and fishpond. A magnificent family opportunity in meticulously maintained environs close to Ivanhoe and Kew private and primary schools, the Main Yarra Trail, East Ivanhoe Village cafes, Burgundy Street precinct, Austin Hospital, Eastern freeway and public transport.
