59 Boys Home Road, Newhaven, Vic 3925

This relocated original Kew terrace house (circa 1910), has been a labour of love for its current owners who have tastefully restored the home, respecting its traditional features. A modern extension with some beautiful contemporary accents connects seamlessly to the original home through a light filled glass corridor.

Throughout the home you will be delighted with the features on offer, including timber flooring, 3.25m ceilings, double glazed and louvre windows, soft "S" fold track curtains, feature lead lighting, and neutral / earthy color palette - enhancing the internal spaces.

On offer are 4 bedrooms, with the master suite boasting an ornamental fireplace, walk in robe, and full ensuite. Two of the remaining bedrooms feature antique freestanding robes, and the 4th bedroom features french door access to the rear yard, and built in storage/study desk - making this an ideal study or home office. The bedrooms are serviced by a gorgeous family bathroom featuring a dreamy selection of floor and wall tiling.

The main living zone, functions perfectly as the home's hub, with generous space, feature glass window with calming water glimpses to Westernport Bay and an assortment of textures and finishes. A cozy slow combustion wood fire provides ambience and radiant heat, while there is split system heating and cooling offering an alternate climate control. The engineered oak timber floors, allow the living, dining and kitchen areas to flow.

The kitchen has been creatively appointed, with the clever use of marble and timber benchtops, and the most exquisite green tiled splash back. There is ample storage, including soft close drawers, and it is well equipped with a 900mm Smeg gas cooktop and electric oven, as well as a Miele dishwasher. For easy functionality the kitchen adjoins a walk through butlers pantry/ laundry - providing a very european flavour to the floor plan.

The appeal of the residence continues in the outdoor spaces, where you have a delightful front verandah - the ideal spot to sit and enjoy the sun set. And a central decking space, which offers great protection from the sea breeze, and a great place for the family to gather for evening meals or barbecues. A very convenient outdoor hot and cold shower, ideal after spending time on the beach.

The garden boasts a selection of edible fruit trees including apricot, peaches, nectarines, pears, apples, mango, cumquat, lemon, finger lime, and fig. The vegetable boxes filled with a herb garden and seasonal vegetables and fruits including strawberries and blueberries. There is a row of ornamental pears lining the side boundary - to add a some height and dimension to this establishing garden.

For storage, there is a garden shed, and a shipping container - currently functioning as a studio for the owner (which they are happy to move if required). There is an open air gazebo, perfect for summer afternoons, a water tank (for garden use, and is also connected to the kitchen). Side access to the rear yard is available via the side road, offering potential for parking caravan or boat, or for a future garage. The property also offers two hot water services (gas and electric) for added convenience.

This delightful home commands inspection, and will not disappoint.
