151a Oakleigh Road, Carnegie, Vic 3163

Brand new, family-sized elegance is lavishly light-filled and luxuriously appointed in this 4 bedroom, 3.5 bathroom, plus study townhouse directly opposite and overlooking the vast expanses of Packer Park. With a sun-drenched, north-facing alfresco rear, a relentless commitment to excellence and commanding views across the park, this is an exclusive opportunity for proud entertainers in a coveted family pocket of lifestyle joy.

Beyond a visually striking façade of timber, concrete and appealing render, the home opens-up to reveal a celebration of light and proportion, set under soaring ceilings and culminating in a vast open-plan rear where glass sliding doors extend the space outdoors to a sunny deck. Crafted for gourmet cooking with a large Butler’s Pantry, the kitchen is organised around a waterfall-edged island bench of stone that is perfect for the morning rush hour or an evening glass of something with friends while you prepare dinner on a suite of Smeg appliances that include a 900mm oven and induction cooking.

As it opens to a private upstairs terrace that overlooks Packer Park, the main bedroom is a sumptuous parental sanctuary with walk-in robes, and a large ensuite that highlights a double basin vanity and an oversized walk-in shower. Meanwhile, downstairs, a guest bedroom also benefits from its own similarly vogue ensuite and built-in robes, plus there are another 2 robed bedrooms -upstairs and adjacent to a family bathroom with a feature bathtub.

Conveniently, the lock-up garage delivers direct internal access to the home via a mudroom, plus there is a vast upstairs living room with teen-retreat potential. As expected in a home of this calibre, the list of added highlights is extensive, spanning from an open study, a large stone-topped laundry and a powder room to video entry, remote-access front gate and garage, as well as central and zoned reverse cycle heating and air conditioning.

Treat the open parkland, sporting fields, playground and velodrome of Packer Park as your personal backyard from this privileged position just moments from all the cosmopolitan vibrancy, cafes, dining and shopping of Koornang Road, as well as city-bound trains from Carnegie Railway Station, plus you have Duncan McKinnon Reserve, the soon-to-be-completed Carnegie Memorial Swimming Pool and local buses all nearby.
