A Slice Of Country Paradise AUCTION $1,100,000 - $1,200,000With an unmistakable country ambience, Elmswood is a unique family home that exudes warmth and charm from the moment of arrival. A verandah extends the full length of the house and wraps around to an open-air deck at the rear; providing an idyllic place to sit, relax and entertain, made completely private by the peaceful bush setting.Thought to have started its life as a miners cottage, a sympathetic renovation and numerous extensions have transformed this beauty into a substantial family home, whilst still retaining all the charm of yesteryear. The interior features an open plan lounge and dining room warmed by a gas log fireplace and further enhanced by a pretty bay window with seating; offering an inviting spot to curl up with a good book. Accompanying this is a stylish kitchen equipped with re-cycled Blackbutt benchtops and a prized Belling electric range that stands in place of where the original wood fire oven was located in days gone by.Also on the ground floor are three sizeable bedrooms which share the main family bathroom. Head on upstairs and discover a large retreat and study nook, complemented by the master bedroom appointed with dual walk-in robes and a chic ensuite.Cleverly re-purposed, the original garage has been converted into a fabulous studio/home office, spilling outside to a paved courtyard.Notable highlights include timber floors, ducted heating, split system air-conditioning, plantation shutters, tandem garage set within a much sought after low maintenance, flat block with plenty of off-street parking.Superbly located just a short stroll from Andersons Creek Primary School, Goldfields Plaza, public transport links, and moments from the vibrant hub of Warrandyte Village and the majestic Yarra River.
