748 Elgar Road, Doncaster VIC 3108

It's hard to not to get excited about this gem of home. Hidden away in the thick of the action, it's home that has an arsenal of tricks. It's a jack of all trades - and a master of them!

From sprawling, sunny living precincts, to lush private gardens and truly brilliant entertaining spaces, it's a home that just ticks boxes.

In an enviable position, it's quite literally a short stroll to Shoppingtown, metres from Eastern Freeway access, has a bus stop almost at the door, and has your pick of primary and secondary schools within a small radius.

This family house has been loved. It's dressed in premium clothes with features like hardwood floors, plantation shutters, feature lights and a neutral colour palette.

The formal living and dining zone overlooks a ridiculously wide, old school patio. It's a bright space ideal to sit and watch the world go by. Featuring a gas log fire, the formal living blends with the family/meals area through to a great kitchen with loads of storage.

Then there is the truly vast casual living wing - opening out onto a covered outdoor entertaining area, you'll be knocked out by the scale. You'll be impressed with the presentation too - it's bordered by low maintenance, super secure backyard making it an area that will be loved by young & growing families, pet lovers, downsizers and party goers alike. And if you're a tradie or business owner, this may well be your nirvana.

With an oversized garage occupying a vast swathe of the under house area, the garage space is brilliantly complemented by a multitude of secure storage areas, workshops - even a man cave. And with a bit of elbow grease and council approval, it could even become an additional self contained living space. A metal work artist was commissioned for the feature front fence and custom built gates. Not only are they a work of art, but provide a strong fortress-like barrier, meaning up to 5 cars are always locked away from prying eyes.

The bedrooms are generous and plentiful, the bathroom is crisp and fresh and there's a big laundry.

This home is a ripper. Perfectly positioned, ridiculously functional, super versatile and like a warm embrace, provides family sanctuary and comfort in spades. And with awesome entertainment spaces and easy gardens, it's the epitome of an all-rounder.

Homes like these are rare as hens teeth, so don't dawdle - you'll need to move fast to secure what could be the best value of 2024.
