Sustainability, sophistication & comfort in Kensington’s Newmarket
Placed on one of old Kensington’s quiet, tree-lined cul-de-sacs, at the top end of the historic Stockman’s Route walking track and well uphill from the Maribyrnong River, this efficient all-electric home was lovingly renovated by meticulous owners for long term living. Seamlessly joining modern style, sustainability, and amenity, the home offers instant ease and comfort alongside reduced energy bills.
Light filled open plan living fosters a feeling of airiness, with double glazed windows and skylights providing all-day natural light throughout. Thoughtful landscaping takes advantage of a considerable setback from the street, with a drought resistant native bush tucker garden providing privacy and tranquillity. Natural elements continue inside the home, where Jarrah hardwood floors, v-groove wall panelling, and exposed brick feature walls contrast a tasteful colour palette which continues into three stylish bedrooms. Large glass bifold doors transform the ground level into an indoor-outdoor hospitality haven, with a sizable, covered veranda superb for alfresco dining amongst the sun-splashed greenery of a kitchen garden. Sawn bluestone stepping stones lead through the deep rear garden, complete with grand historic peppercorn tree, past an herb spiral and raised garden beds to access the hidden carport, bicycle storage, and compost bays.
Tailor-made for the passionate cook, the kitchen features a top of the range Miele full-surface induction cooktop, Qasair whisper quiet high powered externally vented rangehood, French Navy AbsoluteMatte cabinetry with ample Blum storage solutions including hidden kicker drawers, and generous stone countertop space including a servery for entertaining and casual meals. Cleverly designed, the floor to ceiling tiled downstairs laundry/bathroom (second WC) features a rain shower in addition to washer, dryer, upright freezer, and wall cabinetry. Other highlights of this all electric home include reverse cycle air conditioning throughout, retrofitted wall insulation batts, cross-hatched ceiling insulation, heat pump hot water system, rainwater storage tank, retractable undercover clothesline for year-round drying, wool carpeted upstairs, custom modern built-in wardrobes in each bedroom, understairs storage, zoned garden watering system, and rear access carport with automatic roller door and roof storage.
With Kensington’s vibrant village life just moments away, this address boasts the convenience of just 3 minutes’ walk to Newmarket's supermarket, shopping and cuisine precinct, trams bound for hospitals, universities, and Queen Victoria Market, and trains reaching the CBD in 3 stops.
