1/12 Hopetoun Street, MITCHAM

'Eyethorne' is a resplendent reminder of time gone by. One of Mitcham's original cottages, once set upon orchards, it retains its majesty, whilst possessing thoughtful modifications and the potential for further alteration.

Poised on a manageable 430sqm (approx.) allotment, it is perfect for those who have an appreciation for character and a preference for easy living. Manicured gardens form a gracious introduction to the home, including a hedge-framed pathway to a large front verandah, where residents can sit and admire their splendour.

Inside, the home's charm has been sustained with its superb heritage features, such as tall ceilings, solid horse-hair plaster, quality timber floors and doors, picture rails, sash windows, plus two open fireplaces that grace separate lounge and dining rooms.

Two generously-sized and robed bedrooms offer a comfortable night's respite and are serviced by an elegant full-size bathroom.

For cooking, washing and washing up, the fully equipped kitchen with an integrated European laundry is a practical space and contains direct access to a sunbathed deck for entertaining.

A side courtyard supplies supplementary room for quiet outdoor time and boasts a raised planter bed for growing herbs and veggies.

Enriched with the inclusion of ducted heating, air conditioning, an alarm, a water tank, ample storage and a single carport, and possessing plentiful roof space for an attic conversion (STCA), this home is sure to capture shrewd buyers' attention.

Complemented by a convenient location, it is a leisurely walk to scenic reserves, trails, Heatherdale Preschool, bus stops and both Heatherdale and Mitcham Train Stations. An easy commute to quality schools, recreational facilities, EastLink and a plethora of shopping and dining options, including Whitehorse Road, Ringwood Square and Eastland.
