49 Shelley Street, ELWOOD

Embraced by an incredibly private & idyllic garden oasis on its prime corner allotment of approx. 507sqm, this impressively reimagined 4 bedroom home is a timelessly appealing setting for relaxed family living.

An easy stroll to the secondary college and both St Columba's & Elwood primary schools, the solid brick home spans two stylishly appointed levels with a layout that will appeal to families of any age or phase.

Perfectly oriented to capture glorious north-westerly sunshine throughout, among its standout inclusions are a tranquil lounge with working fireplace and built-in library as well as an expansive open plan living/dining area and newly renovated gourmet kitchen. Designed for easy entertaining, this fabulous family-centric zone spills outside to the stunningly verdant garden which has the added bonus of council approval for an in-ground pool.

A ground-floor master with ensuite and underfloor heating enjoys direct access to a sun-trap decked courtyard, making it a sublime parents' retreat. Two additional bedrooms are also positioned downstairs. A fourth palatial bedroom is hidden away on the home's upper-level, perfect for teens or even those working from home.

Natural sunlight illuminates the main bathroom, and there is a separate bathroom available for the convenience of guests. Ducted heating can be found throughout and the home features three split system units along with a wine cellar, beautiful wide-board flooring & carpets, a full laundry, garden irrigation and water tank/grey water, and solar panels for extra savings. There is also an auto garage with loft-style storage, accessed off Ruskin Street.

Close to Elwood's magnificent foreshore, walking & cycling paths, this blue-chip address is within footsteps of the suburb's many fabulous cafes, restaurants and boutique shopping attractions. It is also well serviced by bus routes and just minutes to Melbourne's CBD.
