Architecturally designed to show breathtaking views of leafy suburbs close by and Mount Buninyong in the distance, this home is a triumph.

Filled with sunlight, architect Kevin Joy devised this two storey home to live in and enjoy. Recently renovated with low maintenance gardens, it is the ideal inner city lifestyle property. On steel foundations, outside the home is rustic western red cedar while inside is the lightness of Tasmanian oak floors and stairs.

An open plan living area on the first floor makes the most of views with floor to ceiling windows. There is an informal lounge, spacious dining area and modern galley kitchen with stone bench tops, stainless steel appliances and white cabinetry. It also has a walk-in pantry and wine cellar. 

At the back of the kitchen an oversized laundry gives access to a charming side courtyard garden with granite sand pavers.

A master bedroom wing is also at ground level. There is a walk-in robe and full en suite with sleek, black floor to ceiling tiles and free standing bath. Outside the master bedroom a merbau deck with safety glass fence wraps around the adjacent lounge.

Also downstairs is a snug TV room, study with built-in shelving, office and further retreat or possibly fourth bedroom.

A spiral staircase accesses the second floor. Here are two big bedrooms and multipurpose room. In keeping with the downstairs design is a shared bathroom.

In this quiet leafy part of Armstrong Street your privacy is assured and while you won’t feel like you’re in Ballarat anymore, Dorothy, you are!
