3a Hockey Lane, Ascot Vale, Vic 3032

Glancing across neighbouring parkland, this serene and sophisticated, street-fronting gem promises the finest in modern easy-living in a prized pocket skirting Moonee Ponds Creek.

An endearing, recycled-brick facade reveals stand-out interior spaces, with an endlessly practical plan stretching over three luxurious levels. Placed either side of a stylish bathroom with bathtub, a versatile office/third bedroom complements an expansive guest room with extensive robe space. A trendy ensuite, walk-in robe, and sitting area all enhance a luxe top-floor master. Soaking in all-day sun, a brilliantly open living/dining zone seamlessly integrates with a kitchen fit for the most enthusiastic of home chefs, with swathes of striking stone accompanied by upmarket Asko appliances, abundant soft-close storage, and a waterfall island comfortably seating five. A north-facing terrace proves sublime for social gatherings enjoying sweeping vistas, while other highlights include heating/cooling, dark hardwood floors, an oversized laundry, remote-controlled garage, alarm, quiet courtyard, middle-level powder room, and placement opposite the Essendon Hockey Club.

Perfectly positioned for a ride to work beside the creek or sunset stroll with the dog, it’s footsteps to Mt Alexander Road cafés, restaurants, bars, and boutiques, Ormond Park sporting fields, and trams bound for hospitals, universities, and the CBD, while near acclaimed schools, lively Puckle Street, and CityLink.
