THE DEAL

Set on a wide corner block of 460sqm (approx) opposite JL Murphy Reserve, this renovated four-bedroom Bank Home delivers space where it counts. The deep front yard creates distance from the street, while the interior moves easily between living, dining and outdoor zones, forming an excellent family layout that can shift from day to day.

Three large living areas work together without feeling repetitive. There’s room to spread out or connect, depending on what’s needed, all flowing to the stylish kitchen at the rear, which handles busy mornings, long lunches and full-scale entertaining with sleek stone benches, quality appliances and loads of storage. Sliding doors extend the entire footprint to the raised covered deck, perfect for weekend BBQs, whilst expansive lawns make it ideal for kids or pets to have the freedom they deserve.

Upstairs comprises three bedrooms, each with good separation, including the main, which has its own ensuite and built-in robes. A second with robes catches a slice of the city skyline, whilst a bonus fourth bedroom is entirely separate and adaptable in use, accessed via the garden, making it great for guests, work or a teen needing independence. There’s also a full family bathroom, large laundry with a WC, plantation shutters throughout, split system heating/cooling, a gas fireplace, tandem lock-up garage and keyless access. Nothing overdone, nothing undercooked, just pure modern magic.

SEALS THE DEAL

It takes less than ten minutes on foot to the beach and is even closer to Garden City Reserve, with coveted zoning for Port Melbourne Primary and Secondary Schools, and independent options nearby, including The Mac.Robertson Girls’ High School. With Bay Street shops and the light rail close by, families looking for more space in an unbeatable inner-city location will find this one ticks all the boxes.
