14 Elm Grove, Kew East VIC 3102

Capturing natural light and breathtaking views from an elevated position, this enchanting mid-century home delivers modern comfort and style across a sprawling four-bedroom plus home office layout. Nestled within an exclusive enclave known as 'The Island', this secluded locale provides an idyllic family lifestyle of leisure and recreation, offering immediate access to the Yarra River's rambling parklands, endless walking trails, and native wildlife, plus Green Acres and Kew golf clubs.

Enveloped by yesteryear's double-brick construction, the home welcomes guests into a sunlit interior bordered by high ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows. A warm and earthy colour palette offsets gleaming hardwood floors, meandering into an immense lounge and dining domain that transforms from everyday relaxation to vibrant entertaining.

Stretching onto a wide terrace at the front, indoor-outdoor enjoyment is highlighted by vivid sunset views over the leafy horizon. Amid the lush, easy-care yard, a sheltered deck hosts alfresco celebrations, enhanced by an approved permit to add a swimming pool under the northern sun. Centrally positioned for the avid entertainer, the fully appointed kitchen offers room for family meals, amid abundant cabinetry and lustrous stone benches.

Upstairs, the bedrooms enjoy the generous proportions of mid-century design, nurturing tranquil retreat for rest, retreat, and study, with ceiling fans in all four bedrooms. The main bedroom is pampered with wall-to-wall fitted wardrobes and spills onto a scenic balcony with views stretching over the treetops to a glittering city-skyscraper skyline. Two bathrooms complement the accommodation, including a spacious family bathroom upstairs, and a guest bathroom downstairs adjacent to a dedicated home office.

Completed by an oversized double garage with a large workshop and under-house storage, the home is cocooned in the comforts of ducted heating, split system air-conditioning throughout, and solar electricity. Situated metres from Hays Paddock and city-bound buses, the home is surrounded by elite public and private schools, while minutes from Willsmere Village's cafes, Kew Junction's eateries and shopping, and the Eastern freeway for a quick CBD commute.
