7 Elbena Grove, Carnegie

With a history dating back one hundred years and boasting a uniquely heart-warming facade, this inviting Arts & Crafts home is tucked in a quiet street amongst leafy established gardens.

Welcomed by a sweeping archway to a shady verandah, the interiors feature soaring decorative ceilings and original Baltic pine floors that flow to a tranquil lounge boasting a roaring open fireplace at its heart. Off here is a versatile reading room or study space while families will find another work from home option further on.

Forming a social nucleus, the large entertainer’s kitchen has been equipped with stainless steel appliances (Miele dishwasher) and boasts a massive built-in pantry, whilst the north-facing open plan living and dining zone - which is a more recent addition - was crafted under passive solar principles to ensure optimum light and temperature control throughout the year. Families will love relaxing on the shaded deck which looks out to the sunny garden where a storage shed and garage/workshop are desirable practicalities.

Peaceful and inviting, each of the three bedrooms are generous doubles that benefit from ample storage and share two bathrooms - one off the large laundry that opens to the garden. A gas space heater, split system and ceiling fans provide year-round comfort while gated on-site parking wraps up a truly one-of-a-kind residence.

Within the easiest walk of Murrumbeena station & cafes and close to Carnegie’s hub, there are also bus routes, parklands and even Chadstone shopping Centre all within easy reach.

We donate a portion of our fee from every property transaction to the Woodards Foundation to support people experiencing homelessness, family violence and social isolation.
