2 Albert Road Drouin, VIC 3818

For the buyer seeking a home with a difference rather than a stock standard, volume built property, this character filled abode is more than bricks and mortar. Built circa 1967, the classic double fronted residence has been extensively renovated, fusing many of the original vintage elements with modern amenities creating an eclectic, yet harmonious ambience. High ceilings, moulded cornices, timber architraves and the original polished concrete slab, an innovative feature for its time, have been retained. Repainting inside and out, new marble kitchen, laundry and refurbished bathroom, new window coverings, lighting and external blinds are some of the recent improvements. Generous light filled rooms allow for easy living and entertaining whilst large windows frame the private, leafy outlook. The layout includes three bedrooms, all with inbuilt robes, custom crafted kitchen, meals and living area, study nook with inbuilt desk, four piece bathroom and a laundry. A lovely feature is the elevated terrace along the front, surrounded by lush greenery with glimpses of distant farmland and perfect for cocktails at sunset. At the rear is a sheltered patio for morning coffee or summer barbeques overlooking the private rear yard.
Home chefs will appreciate the kitchen, stylish and functional with forest green cabinetry, marble work surfaces and splashback complemented with a five burner gas cooktop, integrated rangehood, electric oven, dishwasher and a three door pantry. The island bench is ideal for friends to gather.
Chic and luxuriously appointed, the bathroom includes brushed copper tapware, free standing bath, walk-in shower, floating marble topped vanity unit and a toilet. Split system air conditioning in the living area and a heat transfer system, which removes hot air from the ceiling in the summer, maintains climate comfort. A double carport with direct entry to the home, garden shed and side access to the rear yard are further features. Conveniently located, the property is 500 metres from the vibrant shopping strip, VLine station and 300 metres from the primary school. With its timeless retro charm, sympathetic updates and brilliant inner town location, this captivating home is sure to inspire your imagination.
