8 Rose Street

Armadale VIC 3143

Exquisitely renovated and beautifully functional, this double-fronted Victorian residence is a home for all seasons in the heart of Beatty Avenue Village. Modernised with a flair for the bespoke, the home's enduring heritage character - from high ceilings to marble fireplace mantles and an arched hallway adorned with chandeliers- has been juxtaposed against a palette of elegant finishes creating an environment of sheer sophistication and effortless liveability. Extended by beautiful garden spaces to the north and west, the interiors are light-filled and engaged with the outdoors. A bank of glass and series of French doors in the principal open-plan living and dining zone frames a spacious west-facing entertaining terrace with a fence line of espaliered citrus providing colour, contrast, scent and bountiful fruit. The sky-lit Italian stone kitchen is fresh in crisp white tones with high end European appliances, floor-to-ceiling cabinetry and a long breakfast bar. Three bedrooms with comprehensive wardrobes include the exquisite main bedroom with integrated joinery, walk-in robe and fully-tiled marble ensuite with walk-in shower; while the third bedroom to the north is equally suited as a sitting room and features a gas open fireplace in marble surrounds. The main fully-tiled bathroom with a freestanding bath conceals a skilfully designed laundry. Set back from the street with electric gates to off-street parking, the northern verandah overlooking the front garden is a lovely spot to sit and watch the world go by; while comprehensive appointments include ducted heating, split system air conditioning units, plantation shutters and large shed opening to the laneway. Within a short walk of trams, trains and buses, this superb home is as cosmopolitan as its location surrounded by Armadale's boutiques and shops, Hawksburn Village, cafes and restaurants, parkland, Armadale Primary and private schools.
