2/3 Moor Street, Bentleigh East

Proving that less maintenance doesn't mean less house, this single-storey brick home delivers more than most expect, featuring three bedrooms (or two plus a study), two bathrooms, a single garage and a north-facing paved courtyard, all set behind a remote-gated, camera-intercom entrance shared by just three residences.

Timber floors run through the open-plan living and dining room, where a double sliding door, with a pet door alongside, opens directly to the sunlit alfresco patio. The kitchen keeps pace with stone benchtops, a glass splashback, dishwasher and a breakfast bar, just as suited to preparing a quiet weeknight meal as it is to cooking for a crowd.

The main bedroom has a built-in robe and a skylit ensuite with bath, walk-in shower and vessel basin above a wide vanity with excellent storage. The second bedroom is also fitted with cupboards and its own door into a matching skylit bathroom, giving both rooms a level of privacy not often found in a unit. The third room works as a bedroom or a quiet study with garden outlook.

Ducted heating, split-system air conditioning in the living area, a security alarm, walk-in laundry and a garage with internal access and shelving add to the comfort.

Step outside and the rhythm of the area takes over. Morning coffee at Tucker Road Coffee Merchants or one of the many great cafés on Centre Road, a quick stop at the bakery on the way home, groceries from Ritchies IGA, and dinner out when you don’t feel like cooking. It’s all close enough to become habit, not a plan. Weekends have their own flow. A swim or gym session at GESAC, or a walk through a local park. Everything sits within easy reach, so the day unfolds without much effort. When it’s time to go further, Southland is just minutes away and Chadstone is an easy drive in the other direction, putting major retail and dining options firmly within range. Zoned for Bentleigh Secondary College and Tucker Road Bentleigh Primary School, with St Bede’s, St Peter’s, buses and Moorabbin Station nearby, it’s a location that works just as well day to day as it does long term.
