126 Grange Road, Mount Eden

Stunning Villa on Grange. A seamless blend of beautiful original character with a breath-taking contemporary extension, this grand updated villa is the quintessential big family sanctuary on a large 911 sq m property in all the best school zones. Close collaboration between client, architect and a highly respected builder has ensured an outstanding result. Everything throughout this four bedroom home has been upgraded and completed to the highest standard giving a calm cohesiveness throughout. An enormous rear kitchen/dining/living area with three-metre stud height and kauri floors is a compelling place to entertain. Five metre wide bi-fold door openings bring the garden inside, expanding to huge, sheltered, sundrenched wraparound decks surrounded by native shrubs, lawn and large native trees that create the tranquil feeling of being in the bush. The kitchen sits behind a huge black granite island with Miele dishwasher, Vintec bar fridge, a 900 ml Smeg oven and there is extra storage in the scullery plus a generous laundry next door. You will want to escape to the large second lounge after a busy day on wintery nights. Classic fireplaces add ambiance but the whole home is super toasty thanks to comprehensive insulation, double glazing in the extension and ducted central heating. All four bedrooms provide excellent storage and the master has a walk-through dressing room and en-suite. The family bathroom includes a clawfoot bath and there is a separate guest wc. With a double carport, rainwater catchment to counter those dry summers and great off-street parking. Handy to Mt Eden Village and in triple Grammar zones. Fall in love with the ultimate ''hard to find'' family home where everything's been done superbly. Simply move in, relax and enjoy the benefits of a fantastic but central location. ...
