Comments on 5 St Ives Road BENTLEIGH EAST

Having undergone considerable renovation this circa 1960s property offers good floor flan flexibility with most rooms in the right position. The seven year old second storey extension gives much needed additional bedroom space. What may be a concern for families with teenagers in particular is the lack of a second ground floor living area.  If you only needed three bedrooms one option may be to convert one of the current bedrooms into that much needed extra lounge/living room.  If you were a family with more than two children this properties floor plan may be a little tight.  That said the kitchen family room with its bi-fold doors opening out to the alfresco entertaining area and lush garden beyond has a good feel. The master bedroom has a well concealed walk in wardrobe and whilst it doesn't have its own ensuite the bathroom on this level is close by and with its dual hand basin configuration  works well.  Off street car parking is available at the front of the property and whilst it is not covered you have sufficient space to unload children or shopping.  The properties position in the highly regarded McKinnon High School zone along with its proximity to East Boundary Road, Centre Road shopping and cafes will surely enhance its appeal. The nearest public transport is the bus in East Boundary Road and the train into city is available at Bentleigh station.
