409 Barkers Road, Kew VIC 3101

Nestled within the prestigious Sackville Ward precinct, this Art Deco solid brick home sits on a generous 806 sq. metre allotment (approx.), boasting a north-facing, family-friendly rear garden. Positioned well back from the street, it's in close proximity to leading private schools, offering a blend of charming period features and modern comforts for today's living.

This single-level residence shines with polished hardwood floors and a bright, spacious design. It houses four bedrooms, each with built-in robes (the master featuring a walk-in robe and ensuite), complemented by a powder room and a central bathroom adorned with marble finishes. At its heart lies a superb granite kitchen equipped with an Ilve freestanding stove and Miele dishwasher, leading to a separate laundry area.

The home's elegant Art Deco character is showcased in the formal sitting and dining rooms, each with original fireplaces, providing a graceful setting for relaxation and entertainment. The rear family living room, bathed in natural light, overlooks the lush, secluded garden with its serene pond and fountain, and opens onto an alfresco deck with a retractable awning. Additional features include ducted heating, air-conditioning, an alarm system, a workshed, and an internal remote-controlled double garage.

While already ideal for family living, this impressive Sackville Ward property also offers tremendous potential for further renovations or the development of a new luxury residence (STCA). Its location is unbeatable, close to Xavier College, Trinity, Genazzano, Carey, Camberwell Grammar schools, MLC, Ruyton, Canterbury Girls' Secondary College, various parks, the Camberwell Junction precinct, Auburn train station, and the trams of Burke and Cotham Roads.
