56 Gladesville Drive, Bentleigh East

The block spans approximately 533 square metres, the rear garden faces north, and the 1960s brick home on it is comfortable right now. What happens next is entirely your call. The bones are excellent, the spaces are generous, and the options are clear. Move in, lease it out while you plan your next step, renovate and make it your own, or consider the scope for a new build or dual occupancy, subject to council approval.

The existing layout is easy to work with. A front living room flows through to a dining area that connects openly with the kitchen, fitted with a dishwasher and a 900mm freestanding stainless-steel stove. Beyond, a separate family room adds a second living zone and opens directly to the carport, making day-to-day living simple. A separately accessed studio gives you valuable extra space. It works as a home office, hobby room, gym or a retreat for teenagers, depending on what life calls for.

Three bedrooms sit together in their own wing, each with built-in robes, alongside a bathroom with bath, an independent shower room and a separate toilet. A study nook with access to a second toilet, a full laundry and additional storage complete the floor plan. Outdoors, the sunny garden offers plenty of room to extend, landscape or enjoy as-is. Comfort features include ducted heating, a split-system in the living room, new blinds, electric security shutters to most windows, a brand-new clothesline, and ample off-street parking including a double garage and carport.

Zoned for East Bentleigh Primary and Bentleigh Secondary College, both within walking distance, along with St Bede's College and St Peter's. Centenary Park and Karkarook Park are nearby, Yarra Yarra Golf Club is a gentle putt away, and Moorabbin Station is a short drive. Centre Road’s shopping strip is close at hand and with Southland and Chadstone almost equidistant, the choice of where to head first is entirely yours.

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.
