5 Merton Avenue, Brighton

Wrapped in established gardens stretching to the northern sun, this evocative Edwardian is a seamless synergy of period charm & contemporary luxury. Occupying approx. 764sqm of Blue-Chip Brighton land, its exquisitely renovated interiors are matched only by its first-class location.

Beyond an auto gated driveway with sweeping brick turning circle, a chequerboard tiled porch gives way to the huge reception area. Set beneath coffered ceilings, it leads to an elegant lounge featuring stuccoed ceilings and box bay window looking out to the garden. An open fireplace with stunning ceramic tiles stars both here & in the tranquil sitting room complete with a handsome built-in timber buffet, while four bedrooms including an expansive master bedroom all with generous wardrobing add enormous appeal for families.

Entertainers will be drawn to the rear living & dining zone which is soaked in sunshine thanks to a full wall of enormous stacking sliders that can be retracted back to connect the interiors with a sensational alfresco deck beside the solar heated fully-tiled pool. A remote awning & electric blinds provide shade for the deck & living area which flows into the gourmet kitchen showcasing luxe waterfall stone, premium Miele/Fisher & Paykel appliances along with ample storage & an oversized island bench. This zone offers yet another open fireplace ideal for winter evenings & flows around to meet a fully-fitted study opening out to the deck.

Serviced by a stylish white bathroom with freestanding bath plus a poolside shower bathroom featuring a fresh aquamarine tile choice, this stunning home offers a full laundry, attic storage with dropdown ladder plus hydronic heating, cooling options & back-to-base security.

With all period features carefully restored during the architect-designed renovation, there is also a seemingly endless list of contemporary inclusions headlined by Velux windows with solar-operated blinds, solid Blackbutt flooring, 100% wool carpet & plantation shutters.

Ideal for families & downsizers alike, this single-level dream home is a rare find in an enviable Brighton locale – a stroll to beautiful beaches, Elwood Village & Elsternwick Park & within easy reach of Gardenvale station & shopping precinct as well as some of Melbourne’s finest schools.
