1 Peppertree Place

Cheltenham VIC 3192

Styled to display-home standards with dual-ovens and a massive dining-bench for the state-of-the-art Smeg and Bosch appliance kitchen, the home is exquisitely detailed with rich jarrah floors, thick natural and composite stone benchtops, and glossy custom cabinetry. Cleverly designed with potential for separate-entry (via the garage) for the professional business-at-home office, it's all been included here; from a gracious gas-fireplace for the formal lounge, to dual wall-hung basins for the 5 Star ensuite, to an immense laundry.

Appointed with ducted climate-control (plus additional master reverse-cycle air-conditioning), alarm, and ducted vacuum, the home is endlessly family-wise wise with well-fitted walk-in and built-in robes , deep understair storage, and airy plantation-shutters filtering views upstairs and down. Set in surprisingly easy-care grounds with a double auto-garage plus by parking (or playspace), there's a stone-paved entertainer's courtyard stretched wide across the rear and a landmark gum-tree adding to the widespread street-presence.

Positioned with a view through the trees to the grand old ecclesiastical mansion at the heart of the estate, this family sanctuary enjoys a surprisingly worldly position; around the corner from Friendship Square's childcare and Franks' caf, a minute to Southland's shopping, cinemas and eateries, and minutes to the Mentone schools and Bayside beaches.
