This 1920s character villa in Epsom offers stylish living inside and out

Nestled in a quiet cul-de-sac in the heart of Double Grammar Zone is this circa 1920’s-character villa, sitting proudly on a rare 835sqm freehold section. Perched high above the road front, it boasts a timeless facade and equally impressive interiors with ornate high stud ceilings, an original tiled fireplace, lead-light glass and colonial bay windows adding to its charming appeal. Featuring a versatile 217sqm floorplan split over two levels, it offers plenty of space for the whole family and a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living.

A covered entranceway feeds into a large sumptuous lounge and an adjoining sunroom/office which boasts its own direct access. Sliders in the separate formal dining room can be closed off for privacy or left open to create a large open plan living space. The modern kitchen and combined living area open to a north-facing timber deck and private rear lawn creating an unparalleled alfresco entertainment zone.

Two double bedrooms are serviced by a family bathroom and a laundry room and an additional powder room complete this level. The upper level comprises a spacious landing, a study and the remaining two bedrooms which share a contemporary bathroom.

This property features a carpeted basement with plentiful storage and a freestanding single garage on the vast landscaped back lawn which could be utilised for a myriad of purposes. Private and secure, the section is perfect for kids and pets to safely play and there is ample space to add a swimming pool if desired. Iconic homes with grandeur and grace have made Epsom what it is today, and this alluring residence is certainly a textbook exemplar. There’s no doubt this grand lady is a rare find – don’t let her be the one that got away!
