From Toorak Avenue, driveway entry is easy, with side-by-side parking beneath a large double carport and the front door just metres away. A formal entry provides a welcoming view through the main living area, where high raked ceilings, a painted solid-brick wall and an alcove of feature Western Red Cedar cladding come together to create a calming sense of place. The sunken lounge and open plan dining look out through a wall of window to greenery in front of the privacy wall in the garden - It is a versatile space, ready to suit the way you choose to live.
There are three bedrooms and two bathrooms. The main bedroom includes a walk-through robe and ensuite, while bedrooms two and three have plenty of natural light, built-in storage and share a family bathroom with a separate toilet. The laundry is more of a utility room and has been renewed.
The all-white kitchen is a beauty, interacting effortlessly with the everyday living area and connecting through to the backyard. It is a spacious walk-through kitchen with excellent storage, generous bench space and room for a few stools - fresh and vibrant, modern and practical. Quality appliances include a smart electric oven, wide gas cooktop and dishwasher. A large pantry and floor-to-ceiling corner cabinets provide abundant storage for extra appliances, while engineered stone benchtops add a touch of class. The atrium window beyond the wet area is a particularly lovely feature.
Open to the kitchen, the tiled family area is ideal for everyday dining and casual living, with room for a cosy lounge and table setting. It is a practical place for busy mornings and, by evening, a relaxed environment for gathering around the table. Sliding doors extend this zone to one section of the superb outdoor living area.
Beyond the kitchen, a connecting carpeted walkway passes the formal lounge and features glass sliding doors to the outdoors, leading to the huge family living room or games retreat. This great open space includes a corner bar, room for a large dining table and flexibility for any lounge configuration. With three separate living areas - you'll have fun deciding how you live, but this great room truly takes this home to another level! It is warmed by a gas wall furnace, cooled by dedicated split-system air conditioning, and again opens through sliding doors to the outdoor living area.
Comfort is well considered throughout, with ducted reverse-cycle air conditioning to all three bedrooms and the open-plan kitchen and lounge, while most rooms also have ceiling fans.
The backyard setting is extra special, beginning with its north-facing aspect. Warm winter sun is always welcome, while summer shade makes outdoor living a pleasure. For those searching for just the right amount of room to move without being overwhelmed by maintenance, this is it.
A huge pergola, spanning nearly the length of the home, is a place to enjoy all year round. A central spa and garden feature divide the space, allowing for separate lounge zones and a permanent outdoor dining area. There are spots for the barbeque & pizza-oven, fill it in with potted greenery and you'll appreciate the way sunscreen blinds enclose the entire space and how it all lights up at night! Think of weekends at home in your own environment - birthday celebrations with family & friends or simply relaxing at home. This is the place to be.
A walling system frames the backyard and makes it all incredibly private. A concealed gate opens to a corner of the yard where you'll find raised garden beds for veggies & herbs, and a rustic area to compost, cultivate and potter about. There is an open lawn area for kids' playtime and even a paved area that holds memories of backyard cricket.
A stand of mature yucca trees encloses a paved courtyard with a Hills Hoist and neat hobby work-shed. The front gardens are equally delightful. Lovingly tended, they offer small zones to pause and appreciate. Everywhere outside feels beautifully established and in its place.
Location and position perfect, 16 Toorak Avenue is simply a wonderful buying opportunity.
For the current owners, it has been their forever family home ...
Make it Yours.
