1/24 Shepparson Avenue, Carnegie

If you love the idea of house-sized space without the workload that usually comes with it, this single-level residence strikes the perfect balance. Positioned at the front of the block, it offers a strong sense of independence, substantial proportions and two living zones.

A front porch leads to the entry, where double doors open to a large living and dining room that immediately communicates a sense of scale. From here, the interior flows to a casual meals area and open-plan kitchen equipped with a wall oven, gas cooktop, dishwasher and ample bench space. You can move and cook comfortably while staying part of the conversation.

One of the real strengths here is the sleeping accommodation. Three bedrooms and two bathrooms, all on one level, is a combination that’s hard to find in a villa setting. The main bedroom includes built-in robes and an ensuite, while two additional bedrooms with robes sit near the central bathroom with bath, shower and a separate toilet with a hand basin.

At the front, a generous garden offers space for kids to play or time in the sun, while the rear yard includes a clothesline. A full laundry, ducted heating, linen storage, a skylight in the hallway and the bonus of a double garage add to the appeal, with scope to introduce modern touches over time and tailor the look to your style.

Zoned for Carnegie Primary and Glen Eira College, within walking distance of Carnegie Station, and right near Koornang Road's vibrant café and restaurant strip. From the much-loved Rosstown Hotel to Asian grocers and everyday supermarkets, it's a genuine local hub. Koornang Park and Carnegie Pool are close by.
