22 Gladys Grove, Croydon, Vic 3136

Expertly renovated throughout, designer influences and bespoke features shape the personality of this gorgeous weatherboard home. Conveying a sense of warm intimacy with its veranda framed façade and pale pink door, spilling inside to a light and engaging aesthetic with herringbone patterned floors.

The master is brilliantly zoned with a dreamy window seat and cleverly designed skylit walk-in robe/make-up nook. A connecting on-trend ensuite is akin to a day spa with freestanding bath, dual rainfall shower, rattan and timber vanity and terrazzo-inspired floors and feature wall marrying with VJ paneled touches. This modern elegance is replicated in the children’s bathroom with a back-to wall bath. The laundry is also expertly arranged with ample built-in cabinetry for linen, a huge drying cupboard and vacuum charging station.

Living and entertaining domains are planned to absolute perfection. Appreciate the quiet surrounds of the lounge room with inviting brick open fireplace. Contrasted with the vibrant family/dining space and a kitchen worthy of culinary awards. The 2.1m x 1.5m, stone island bench is fitted with power, and complemented by 2-Pac sage inspired cabinetry with unique rattan handles. Flaunting four ovens and four sinks between the kitchen and butler’s pantry, with zip hot/cold filtered and mineral water plus a wine fridge and coffee hub for any beverage preference. In addition to double gas cooktops and an Asko dishwasher. All this opulence is illuminated by a trio of v-luxe skylights.

A stable-style door provides effortless separation with a built-in work/study nook, and the main fireside space merges with a superb indoor-outdoor entertaining room. Flaunting a merbau deck, shielded from the elements by electric UV/water resistant, zip track blinds. Enjoy a fully equipped BBQ kitchen with fridge and sink plus a wooden fireplace to create the ultimate chilly day social scene, set against a lovely rustic red brick feature wall.

The children’s wing provides three robed bedrooms and a rumpus/retreat with external access. Primed for building a future pool on the flat grassed garden with electricity and gas plumbed and ready for your future creation, plus access to a third modern bathroom facility (STCA). Children will appreciate the custom built treehouse with sandpit, slide, raised veggie gardens to grow their favourite herbs, and adults will love the mature olive tree to collect the fruits. There is also the opportunity on the large allotment to build a chook shed for future breakfast rewards.

Just when you thought this home couldn’t possibly offer any more, there is secure garaging for 6-plus cars with drive-through rear access ideal for a tradesperson or car enthusiast. It can also be a gathering space with third wood fire.
