5 Waterdale Road, Ivanhoe, Vic 3079 - More Details
Auction $1,675,000 - $1,775,000
Set at the quiet, blind-ending cul-de-sac of Waterdale Road, on a prominent corner allotment with dual frontage, this is Fairy Hills at its most tightly held. A handsome period home of real substance, filled with warmth, character and personality, ready to be enjoyed exactly as it stands while offering exciting scope for whatever comes next.
The distinctive brick façade gives way to interiors that wear their era beautifully: polished timber floors, high ceilings, decorative detailing, elegant timber framed windows and an original fireplace that anchors the home with quiet character.
Three generous bedrooms are serviced by two bathrooms, while the traditional front lounge and adjoining dining room create a formal living zone with a true sense of occasion. Beyond, the home opens up entirely into an expansive second living and meals area, the kind of relaxed, light-filled everyday space families search for and so rarely find in a home of this vintage.
At the heart of it all sits a genuinely impressive kitchen, beautifully appointed and cleverly positioned between both living zones, equally at home with weeknight dinners and long weekend lunches. Multiple doors draw the rear of the house outward to a deck, paved entertaining areas and established gardens, where mature greenery wraps the property and offers somewhere to sit in every season.
A corner allotment with dual frontage to Waterdale and Redesdale Roads delivers something increasingly rare in this pocket: exceptional off-street parking. A substantial double garage, complemented by a separate single garage, securely houses up to three vehicles, with generous driveway space besides. Storage, a workshop, the classic car or the boat: there is finally room for all of it.
Surrounded by parkland yet remarkably connected, the home sits within easy reach of both Ivanhoe and Alphington, with shopping, cafés, public transport and highly regarded schools all close at hand. Darebin Creek's trails and reserves, Ivanhoe, Darebin and Alphington stations, the Alphington Farmers Market and the Yarra are moments away, creating a lifestyle where green open space and everyday convenience sit comfortably side by side, on an Ivanhoe address that will keep rewarding for years to come.
