163 Darling Road, Malvern East VIC 3145

Behind a striking traditional exterior, an impressive portfolio of original features, polished timber floors, leadlight windows, decorative ceilings and preserved timber panelling punctuate this single level home, beautifully extended to create a brilliant family domain. An inviting undercover alfresco area and outdoor kitchen add to the appeal, creating a compelling setting for year-round entertaining in style. A separate north-facing studio establishes a flexible space for a home office or retreat, extending the versatility for growing families. Two additional living spaces include the formal living room with a retro fireplace and the vast open plan living zone complemented by a well-equipped kitchen with an Ilve stove, stone benchtops and a central island. Four bedrooms and two pristine bathrooms are supplemented by a laundry, heating and cooling and plenty of storage, including extensive attic storage, while ample parking, a carport and lockup garage complete the proposition. Walk to Lloyd Street Primary, Hedgeley Dene Gardens and Darling station with ease, make the most of cafes and restaurants on Malvern Road and enjoy good proximity to Gardiners Creek Trail.
