Sandringham

Outstanding renovation reveals Federation grandeur, bay views and contemporary innovation in the heart of Sandringham. "Dulwich" started life in 1901 as the home of the local postmistress high on Sandringham Hill, and today it retains its double-brick integrity, beautifully proportioned rooms with high ceilings, and architectural features. Four living zones, four bedrooms and a home office are designed for spacious family living, and the second-storey extension even has a decked terrace for sitting outdoors and admiring the water views. Excellent zoning offers living areas, bedrooms and bathrooms on both floors, the kitchen has a quality fitout with Miele steam and self-cleaning ovens and integrated refrigeration, and the large ground-floor bathroom is one of three over two levels. The land of 849 square metres (approx.) has a 22-metre (approx.) wide frontage and so much to enjoy, from the undercover outdoor kitchen and dining area to verandahs, established landscaping and vegetable beds. This has evolved into a home you'll love to own. It features a brilliant teenage retreat/playroom upstairs, plenty of natural light, custom-commissioned streel windows, doors and hydronic radiator covers, working fireplaces with marble surrounds, plantation shutters, banquette seating and generous storage. The central location makes family life a whole lot easier. It's a short walk to Sandringham's cafes, shops and train station, the beach is minutes away, and primary schools are close by.
