87 Neerim Road, Glen Huntly

Held by one family since 1973, this beautifully presented early 1950s home delivers comfort, space and convenience in a highly sought-after, amenity-rich locale.

Embraced by lovingly tended and thoughtfully planned gardens on its north-fronting allotment of approx. 655sqm, the home features interiors that are warm, welcoming and ready to be enjoyed. Upon entry, discover a sun-filled lounge with cosy gas fireplace and both park & racecourse views. Further on, French doors connect the sunny dining room to an east-facing alfresco deck, where rows of flowering pear trees provide welcome shade during the warmer months – the perfect spot to enjoy the first coffee of the day.

Well positioned for both indoor and outdoor hosting, the smartly appointed kitchen has been designed with the avid chef in mind. A 900mm Bosch oven, handy warming drawer, Miele dishwasher and Highland gas cooktop are among its highlights; all complemented by stunning Corian benchtops and extensive storage, including a dedicated appliance cupboard.

All three bedrooms benefit from built-in storage. One also has the practicality of a pull-out stowaway bed – ideal for guests – while a bright bathroom with WC and a separate powder room serve the accommodation.

Outside, the deep backyard comes alive with colour throughout the seasons. Here roses, daffodils, a magnificent cherry blossom and vibrant Virginia Creeper are among the standout features of a truly inviting setting. Also included are a watering system, a separate utility area with potting bench and two water tanks (13,000lt in total).

With the comfort of ducted gas heating and reverse cycle air-conditioning, the home also offers a full laundry with ample storage, original hardwood floors, plantation shutters, double-glazed windows (front of home), as-new external blinds and an auto garage with shelving and workbench. A camelia-lined driveway provides parking for multiple cars.

Mere footsteps to Glen Huntly Road’s retail attractions, eateries and public transport options – including trams and trains – the home is positioned opposite Caulfield Racecourse and is close to Glen Eira College, the site of the future Mt Scopus Memorial College and popular parks and reserves. Monash University's Caulfield campus is also within easy reach, while buses provide direct access to Chadstone Shopping Centre.
