9 Bennett Street
ALPHINGTON

THE DEAL

A single street from Darebin Parklands for a sense of serenity so close to the city, this turnkey standout sprawls over a large parcel, soaks in all-day sun, and gives a family a spacious entry to an adored Alphington setting.

Impressive from the outset with an ultra-wide stance and absence of traffic, an inviting facade preludes an interior where both parents and kids can find their own pocket to unwind. A master with its own walk-in robe and ensuite is accompanied by a luxe bathroom with a bathtub and separate WC, two extra, robe-lined bedrooms, and a fourth bedroom doubling as a professional’s office. An oversized central lounge is the perfect complement to a hospitality retreat at rear, with family and dining zones stepping into an outdoor domain where a lengthy pergola, open-air backyard, and entertainer’s gazebo combine to make hosting a breeze. Ideal for casual meals, a broad island sits centrally in a kitchen boasting a first-class Miele fit-out, while other highlights include ducted heating, evaporative cooling, a full-size laundry, driveway parking for at least two cars, and a double garage with through access for further vehicles.

Moments to both tranquil parkland and the buzz of the city, it’s a short stroll to Alphington Station, the local Farmers Market, and coffee spots in Seven Seeds and Area52, while near the shops, bars, restaurants, and eateries across Fairfield, Ivanhoe, and Northcote, an array of prestigious private schools, and the bushland, golf courses, and bike trails skirting the Yarra River.

Land size: 606sqm (Approx.)

SEALS THE DEAL

The streetscape couldn’t be more picturesque with its period architecture and converging London Plane trees; signatures of a pocket that’s one of Melbourne’s most cherished.
