With an idyllic position in the heart of peaceful and prestigious Kensington Park, this captivating bungalow combines all the charm of its 1920s vintage with all the comforts and conveniences the modern family could desire. Its sensational eastern suburbs lifestyle location, versatile floorplan and expansive grounds make this an outstanding offering.

Over 100 years ago, Albert Hocking purchased the land and built this solid freestone fronted bungalow which he called home for around 50 years. Stunning embellished plaster ceilings, fancy timber fretwork, leadlight glass, architraves, picture rails, floorboards and fireplaces have all stood the test of time and complement today's contemporary interior design.

The floorplan is spacious and offers highly flexible living and accommodation options for the whole family to enjoy.

From a welcoming entrance hall, two linked reception rooms are ideal for entertaining or relaxing and are currently used as a study and large living room with a corner fireplace. 

Four bedrooms are fitted with plantation shutters and built-in robes, with the master gazing across the front garden, and a bright rear bedroom enjoying elevated views over the back garden. 

Bathed in light and connected to alfresco living, an expansive modern extension incorporates open plan living and a large kitchen with Smeg appliances and a wrap-around stone countertop that is the perfect place to perch and gather. 

Doors open to an elevated platform on which to dine, lounge and savour the beauty of the rear garden. Framed by a glorious golden elm, the solar heated pool sits beside a lush lawn and substantial paved area dappled by an avenue of ornamental pears. 

This is a sensational home for families seeking room to move in one of the east's prettiest and most desired enclaves within minutes of prestigious schools, cosmopolitan boutiques and eateries, and the CBD.
