Standing proudly and commandingly as one of the original Bungalows lining prestigious McCracken, this fully renovated family classic celebrates its heritage, employs countless comforts, and spans a vast 836m2* of prime Mar Lodge land.

With its ultra-wide frontage, timeless ‘20s details, carefully curated gardens, and shaped Elm tree forming a street stance that’s quick to captivate, a tastefully reworked interior offers outstanding functionality across its single sun-soaked level. Waking to green outlooks every morning, a sizeable front master boasts its own chic ensuite and both walk-in and built-in robes, accompanied by robe-lined second and third bedrooms, a lavish central bathroom with a soaker tub, and fourth bedroom doubling as an office for multiple professionals.

· Modern take on Mar Lodge Californian · 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms & 2 living areas · Smeg/Bosch kitchen & barbecue alfresco · Vast yard, heating/cooling & ample parking · Near schools, parks, transport & lifestyle hubs

Flexible by design, a quiet front lounge is the perfect complement to an expansive living/dining area, while sleek stone surfaces, extensive storage, a Bosch dishwasher, 900mm Smeg cooker, and waterfall breakfast bar all feature in a first-rate kitchen. A broad alfresco area is brilliant for barbecues and drinks on summer evenings, while one of Essendon’s largest fully grassed backyards lets kids run around, kick a ball, and burn off any excess energy. Promising luxe from day one, plenty of room to grow into, and ample outdoor space to integrate a pool (STCA) and further heighten the home’s hospitality prowess, a long list of other highlights ducted heating, split-system heating/cooling, ornate era-typical details, an alarm, large laundry, oversized garage, and driveway comfortably housing several cars.

Central to elite schools in St Bernard’s, St Columba’s, Ave Maria, Lowther Hall, and PEGS, it’s only moments to parks and playgrounds, CBD trains and trams, free/tollways for easy commuting, and the shops, cafés, bars, and restaurants spanning Keilor Road, Buckley Street, Rose Street, and North Essendon Village.
