3 Armstrong Street
Beaumaris

Fabulously located close to Seaview shops, the beach and sought-after schools, this character-filled, family-friendly Beaumaris home has an enormous north-facing backyard complete with a towering eucalypt, a cute cubby, and paved alfresco area. Inside the light-filled, brick-clad home, one of Armstrong Street's originals, it is equally family-friendly. The layout flows intuitively with formal and informal living areas at the front and rear, a central kitchen and study, plus four bedrooms including a separately zoned master suite. The facade and interior of the original home has been updated over the decades, and subtle period features and details can be found throughout, adding to the character and charm. These include ornate entry columns, a stunning leadlight skylight in the former dining room, now reassigned as a home office, arch details in the entry and main bathroom, dado panelling and ceiling roses. More recent updates include bamboo flooring in the main living zones, carpeted bedrooms, a gas log heater in the front lounge and a modern central kitchen with timber cabinetry and quality Euro appliances including a Smeg oven. The master suite, at the rear of the house, has a stylish ensuite and WIR, and looks out to the vast expanse of lawn and majestic gumtree. The other three bedrooms all have built-in robes and cabinetry, and the light-filled front bedroom has a large window looking out to the front garden. Other features include gas ducted heating, ceiling fans, plenty of storage room including a shed, a single lock-up garage and plenty of OSP in the driveway. In a tranquil neighbourhood, with the beach just a 10 minute walk away, the home set on 733sqm (approx) is in the prized catchment zone for Beaumaris Secondary college, and is also close to Beaumaris North Primary, Beaumaris Primary, Stella Maris, Mentone Girls' Secondary College and a range of prestigious private colleges.
