2/30 Loranne Street, Bentleigh

It’s not often you find single-level living with this kind of space. Tucked away behind its own driveway, this house-sized villa with two living zones gives you room to spread out without the upkeep that usually comes with it.

There’s a sense of ease from the moment you walk in. A spacious lounge and dining room sits at the front, setting the tone for the layout that works as well for family life as it does for entertaining. Further in, the open family and meals area connects with the kitchen, where stone benchtops, a six-burner gas cooktop, wall oven and dishwasher make cooking effortless. There’s a lovely flow between inside and out, with a north-facing patio framed by greenery for relaxed afternoons or weekend catch-ups.

All three bedrooms include built-in robes, the main with its own ensuite, while the second bathroom has both a shower and bath plus a separate toilet. A full laundry opens straight outside, and additional features include ducted heating, ducted air conditioning and generous storage throughout. There’s also a single garage and parking for two more cars, all on a block that feels completely independent. The interior is perfectly comfortable as it stands with scope to add your own style when the time is right.

From here, it’s steps from Centre Road’s cafés, shops and Bentleigh Station, with Allnutt Park and Hodgson Reserve also close by. Zoned for Brighton Secondary College and Bentleigh West Primary, it’s that rare combination of space, comfort and location wrapped up in one inviting downsizer or first home package.

We donate a portion of our fee from every property transaction to the Woodards Foundation to support people experiencing homelessness, family violence and social isolation.
