18 Somerset Crescent, Croydon VIC 3136

Sensationally set up to accommodate a large family, run a business and capture the Mount Dandenong Ranges at their most magnificent, this stunning central Croydon residence is like a gift that keeps on giving. Proudly poised on an 887sqm (approx.) allotment, the remarkably renovated home commands your attention with its modern exterior, tiered gardens and magical hills vistas.

Inside, contemporary flooring, new soft carpet and neutral paintwork complement the home’s sublime spaces – which are spread across two levels. The ground floor seamlessly caters to teenagers, guests or homebased workers. It has two bedrooms – one with built-in wardrobes and one with under-stair storage, an accompanying bathroom, plus access to a remote two-car garage that doubles as a rumpus.
Upstairs, three double-size bedrooms with built-in wardrobes are serviced by two more bathrooms, including an ensuite to the master, and a divine family bathroom with an egg bath and a walk-in shower. Showcasing those breathtaking hills vistas, the large lounge and family meals area with an open fireplace are relaxing spaces to unwind, and open to a covered entertaining deck with celling fans and lighting. A generous-size kitchen is anchored between the zones. It boasts a 900mm Blanco upright cooker and rangehood, a Bosch dishwasher, substantial storage and bespoke benches consisting of polished concrete and hardwood. A laundry with more storage rests alongside, next to a door that takes you outside. Tiered for maximum useability, the backyard features landscaped gardens, a fire pit area and extensive timber decking that forms seating for further entertaining and view gazing.

A great list of extras enriches the home, including ducted heating, evaporative and split system cooling, lavish amounts of shed, workshop and under-house storage plus an open parking bay. The home’s incredible location adds to its immense appeal. Situated within walking distance to bus stops, reserves, Croydon Central Shopping Centre, Croydon Train Station, Main Street shops and eateries, Croydon Primary School, childcare and medical centres. An easy commute to Luther College, Yarra Valley Grammar, EastLink, Eastland and Chirnside Park Shopping Centre.
