8 Elgin Street
Hawthorn

A sought-after pocket of Hawthorn enhanced by many period homes forms the backdrop for what is arguably one of the prettiest Victorian houses in the surrounding streetscape; with its instantly appealing rendered façade and position set back from the street and preceded by a lovely front garden.

The unexpectedly spacious interior features retained period attributes including high ceilings with roses and a double arched hallway with Baltic Pine flooring flanked by a combined sitting and dining room, four bedrooms, or three plus a study if preferred, main with a WIR and stylish ensuite; plus a pristine family bathroom and separate laundry. A stunning rear extension is highlighted by a north-facing wall of floor-to-ceiling glass designed to capture winter sunshine and vistas of the landscaped garden. Incorporating an expansive living and dining area plus well-equipped kitchen with stainless steel and granite bench tops and premium appliances. Opening through double doors to a deck and the garden - perfect for entertaining family or friends in small or larger groups. Other features include plantation shutters, ducted heating, OFPs, R/C air conditioner (family living), new lawns, front off-street parking and a carport with a remote gate and rear lane access.

This appealing Victorian home enjoys a convenient, lifestyle location close to Kew Junction shopping including Leo's Fine Foods and Toscanos; Just a few minutes' from the vibrant Glenferrie Road boutiques, cafes, restaurants and Lido cinema or the West Hawthorn precinct. Plus public transport options, nearby parklands and a choice of some of Melbourne's finest schools - all within easy reach - where convenience becomes a way of life.
