410 Barkers Road, Hawthorn East, VIC, 3123, Australia

Enjoying a leafy outlook on the corner of Maurice Street, this Californian Bungalow flaunts a spectacular top-to-toe renovation to pamper modern family living. Wrapped by solid bricks and a new terracotta roof, the home’s tranquil interior nurtures everyday living, while indulging a vibrant indoor-outdoor entertainer’s lifestyle.

Beyond landscaped gardens and a tuck-pointed façade, the home is instantly welcoming, wrapped by high 10-foot ceilings and ebony-stained Baltic floorboards. The free-flowing layout is zoned for private enjoyment, mingling family and friends in a vast lounge and dining room, while a bright family room promotes indoor-outdoor enjoyment.

The kitchen stands at the heart of both living spaces, providing a seamless link for en-masse entertaining. Dressed in sparkling stone benches, the kitchen gathers guests around an enormous corner island bar, while catering with a full appointment of Bosch appliances and abundant storage including a walk-in pantry.

Promoting year-round alfresco celebrations, the family room stretches onto a sheltered deck with a raised veggie garden, while a sundrenched brick patio sits among the lush gardens where kids and pets can play in leafy privacy.

The accommodation places parents privately at the front of the home beside a cast-iron fireplace, providing a chic ensuite and extensive robing. Two secondary robed bedrooms share a luxurious spa bathroom, and a spacious sunroom offers versatility as a home office or fourth bedroom.

Finished by a laundry room, a large attic space, and a secured, remote-controlled carport accessed via Maurice Street, the home coddles the family in today’s best comforts and security, while the vast 665m2 (approx.) corner site tempts options for a brand-new home design or townhouse development (subject to council approval).

Situated opposite Carey Grammar and footsteps from a selection of private schools, this sought-after position is primed for family, within a leisurely stroll of Auburn station and Auburn Village’s indulgent eateries and boutiques, while minutes from Camberwell Junction and Glenferrie Road shopping precincts, and Auburn High and Auburn Primary local schools.
