48 Aurum Cres, Ringwood North VIC 3134, Australia
This character weatherboard circa 1948 delivers a perfect blend of modern comfort and classic refinement atop of Loughnan’s Hill. Once the childhood home of renowned Australian illustrator Ann James, its beguiling period spaces have undergone a careful and considered update, so you and your family can simply move in and enjoy.
Particular attention has been paid to the formal lounge/dining arrangement on the entry level, featuring a double-sided open fireplace and seamless access to the rear alfresco deck. The beautifully renovated kitchen and meals area is equally impressive, flaunting sleek stone bench tops and premium S/S appliances.
In keeping with the style of the era, polished floorboards are showcased throughout the six bedroom, three bathroom floorplan, enhanced by plentiful natural light streaming in through a series of large windows. Versatility reigns supreme with a host of additional living spaces adding to the appeal, including a sitting room with patio views, gym/home office and workshop.
Encased in a garden wonderland, this stunning home has an imposing street presence and benefits from wide frontage. There’s a remote double garage and a single carport on site plus additional off-street space suitable for boats, caravans or trailers.
Finishing touches include: gas ducted heating, split system units, a security system, under-house and roof storage, water tank and glorious treetop views.
Its unique location is incredibly peaceful but offers easy access to Eastland, EastLink and the Mullum Mullum Creek Trail as well as a choice of private and public schooling options (Ringwood Heights Primary, Norwood Secondary College, Yarra Valley Grammar, Luther College, etc.).
