3/35 Byron Street, Elwood, Vic 3184

The one you’ve been waiting for, the jewel in the crown of a boutique Art Deco block, this two-bedroom home is styled to suit every age and stage of family life; with private open space on all sides, just one shared wall, and the light-filled open-plan living usually found only in contemporary designs.

Opened up and styled out to maximise garden access and lush green outlooks, this state-of-the-art home fits a modern family with expansive open plan living with room to lounge, dine and entertain ...and send the kids out through double- doors to play in the private garden.

Up-to-the-minute by design with a stone-finished kitchen fronted by an ‘on-display’ cooking/dining bench with Bosch induction cooktop and high-tech Elica down-draft rangehood, the entertaining zone puts chef’s skills centre-stage...and hides all the extras ‘back-of-house’ in a huge bespoke pantry, and a custom European laundry.

Luxe-detailed with a fully-tiled bathroom starring a seamless Corian-topped vanity and a curvaceously-screened full-sized bath, this grand design is cleverly curated with an inspired mix of timeless detail. Bespoke-fitted with full-height robes, subtle brushed brass tapware and door furniture, and slimline venetian blinds, the home sparkles with designer lighting in minimalist strip and Modernist pendant styles.

Renovated with respect for the substantial Art Deco already here, this reverse-cycle air conditioned residence retains every authentic feature from newly polished Victorian Ash floors, to original Bakelite handles, to privacy-enhancing fluted glass (even for the wide-French doors to the garden).

Wrapped by private grounds on all four sides, there’s even more outdoors with a bluestone-paved entertaining area alongside broad lawns (perfect to kick around or fit the trampoline) and a sun-bathed front courtyard area; easily fenced for more secure space for pets and kids.

With two-car parking on-title and an uninterrupted outook to the group’s lushly landscaped grounds, this family-size garden-residence even has a family-wise location. Close to childcare, and just a few blocks to Elwood Primary and Secondary College, this flagship apartment has both the tram and the train within a stroll, and cafes, restaurants, beaches and parks in reach.

Let the big kids walk to school, drop the baby at creche as you step on the tram, come to home to garden living and an entertaining life!
