483 Melbourne Road, Newport, Vic 3015

To take one step into the surroundings of this spectacularly renovated Californian Bungalow property is to enter an environment defined by style where the spaces create world of their own – yet you remain just moments from Hall Street cafes, Mason Street shops, Newport station and within walking distance of not one but two primary schools; Newport Lakes and Sacred Heart. The elegant front garden and classical façade make an immediate impression that stays with you throughout rooms that retain significant period character as they deliver sublime contemporary comfort. An evocative sitting room and central library are surrounded by three luxurious bedrooms and two bathrooms, each one fitted and finished with undeniable flair, including the main bedroom’s huge ensuite and outdoor retreat. The mood is modern, the feel is family and the American Redwood trims are beautiful. A hall framed by chevron patterned parquetry, paneled walls and high ceilings reveals light-filled living and dining dimensions where bi-fold doors on three aspects bring a beautiful alfresco deck into the equation. An open-plan kitchen in stone and stainless steel confirms the quality of the renovation that brings the best of the period and the present day together to form an unforgettable partnership against a paved, private backdrop equipped with an integrated barbeque. Private accessway to Steele Street and off street parking completes a compelling Newport address – and from the street you’d never guess!
