17 Wilks Avenue, Malvern, Vic 3144

A sunlit oasis nestled in one of Malvern’s most esteemed pockets, this warm, welcoming and completely private, solid-brick, c1940s period home occupies a generous 670sqm* allotment and has been timelessly renovated to connect seamlessly with lush, deliberately low-maintenance garden surrounds. Offered for the first time in 30 years, its flexible three-bedroom, two-bathroom layout presents superb single-level living with immense downsizer appeal, while also offering exciting scope for an upward extension (STCA) to further enhance its family credentials. Importantly, the property is not affected by a heritage overlay.

United by concertina doors to a big, bold deck basking in all-day northern sun, the dining, living and family rooms are blissfully light-filled and perfectly suited to large-scale entertaining. Plentiful cabinetry, catering effortlessly to everyday living and more gourmet aspirations.

Introduced by an appealing entrance hall, the home features a large primary bedroom with a huge wall of built-in robes, a private terrace overlooking the leafy streetscape and a fully tiled ensuite. The second bedroom includes built-in robes, a semi-ensuite and Juliet balcony, while a third bedroom offers excellent home office potential. Further highlights include a lock-up garage, one additional off-street car space, large laundry, hardwood flooring, hydronic heating and split-system air conditioning.

Just a leisurely stroll from excellent local cafes at Malvern Village and at Kooyong Village, this is a blue-ribbon location surrounded by expansive parkland at Sir Robert Menzies Reserve and along Gardiners Creek. Malvern Road trams, Kooyong Railway Station and the M1 Freeway provide effortless city access.
