12 Mayston Street, HAWTHORN EAST

A unique offering on the leafy verge of the Junction, this substantial home (c1905) is brimful of the character and charm that make these early century homes so highly admired. Immediately impressive with its wide-set frontage, slate roof, and tuckpointed faade, this elegant 5 bedrooms 3 bathrooms home recalls the timeless beauty of a bygone era whilst providing large, growing, and extended families with a super flexible floorplan catering to a range of living, entertaining and working from home arrangements. A graceful centerpiece to the home, the stately arched hallway journeys past grandly proportioned rooms sitting under towering rose-aden ceilings. A splendid formal lounge room and fine dining room both feature ornate timber fireplaces whilst beyond the spacious Bosch/Miele-fitted kitchen, a huge family room looks northwards onto sunny garden terraces. A separate dwelling, totally transcending its dairy origins, is a wonderful accompaniment to the home with a spacious living area, sunny home-office, and large 5th ensuite bedroom offering all ages and stages independent living quarters, teen rumpus use, or plenty of space to run a home-used business. Absolutely priceless in this hotly-contested location, there's plentiful off-street parking from Mayston St and a carport via roller door to the rear ROW off Harold St. Includes ducted heating, carpets, temperature-controlled cellar, 4 OFPs plus wood-ire and large laundry. Outstanding character and space is a premium lifestyle location amongst the best of the best when it comes to the bounty of retail, transport, and dining out options at Camberwell Junction with the Rivoli and Fritsch Holzer parklands nearby and outstanding schools easily accessible
