36 Stanford Street, Ascot Vale, Vic 3032

Sensationally placed in a revered river enclave, this sleek and sophisticated residence promotes spacious, sun-splashed living within seconds of Riverside golf course, Fairbairn Park’s sporting fields and facilities, and the picturesque trails skirting the Maribyrnong.

Flourishing flora shapes an enticing street stance, with a dual-level plan elevated to frame stunning nature sights. Each stepping into its own open-air setting, broad living and dining zones sit either side of a first-class kitchen, with a five-seat island centre-stage among Smeg appliances, stone surfaces, and plentiful cabinetry. Enjoying its own, scenic balcony, a luxe upstairs master features a walk-in robe and twin-basin ensuite, while built-in robes and a skylit bathroom with bathtub serve two large, additional bedrooms. A sizeable retreat proves equally perfect for teenagers and home-based professionals, while other highlights include comprehensive heating/cooling, under-stair storage, a full-size laundry, and secure double garage at rear (accessed via Quarter Terrace).

A lifestyle prospect like no other, it’s mere steps to Ascot Chase Wetlands, leading public and private schools, and Union Road’s eclectic eateries and boutiques, with trams and trains streamlining access to Highpoint, the Puckle Street shopping hub, Parkville hospitals and universities, and the city centre.
