20 Tattenham Street, Caulfield East, Vic 3145

Without compromising any of its rich, circa-1920s character, this completely freestanding, warm and welcoming 3 bedroom Edwardian residence has been updated with an ambiance to delight the senses, in a rewarding tree-lined street just metres from the open expanses of Caulfield Racecourse and moments from Glen Huntly Road. Restumped, reroofed and resplendent under soaring ceilings, with fine period detail and glorious leadlight windows, the home is a pure joy to live in today, while offering exciting scope for renewal at your leisure (STCA), all on a coveted north-facing parcel of 657 square metres (approx.).

Gazing out upon a sundrenched alfresco living area and the depths of a backyard filled with a charming maple, lemon, lime, grapefruit and mandarin trees, the home’s heart is a traditionally-styled kitchen and dining area in which original Baltic Pine flooring is complemented by rich timber cabinetry and an exposed timber ceiling beam. Evoking the charm of a country farmhouse, the timber theme continues into the bathroom where a claw bath holds pride of place and a separate laundry & toilet.

At the front of the home, the lounge is an ambient room, set under an attractive ceiling rose.

The main bedroom has been fitted with built-in robes and is warmed by a gas-converted fireplace. Further highlights of this heart-warming home include traditional fireplaces in the remaining 2 bedrooms, central heating, the shade of external blinds on the west-facing windows and driveway parking.

Offered for the first time in almost quarter of a century, this is a traditional home suited to families keen for their children to retain some connection to the land and a backyard, as well as those with aspirations to one day build their north-facing forever home in a sought-after position near all the cafes, dining, shopping, city-bound trams and trains of Glen Huntly Road, whilst Caulfield Railway Station with its multiple rain lines offers especially easy city access.
