Set on a generous 697m² allotment in a leafy Glen Iris streetscape, 6 York Road is a beautifully preserved 1920s double-brick California Bungalow offering timeless character, flexible living and exciting scope to further enhance in a prized family setting.
Warm, light-filled interiors showcase high ceilings, original timber detailing and custom American Oak kitchen cabinetry, creating an immediate sense of quality and comfort. The adaptable floorplan currently allows for up to four bedrooms with living, or three bedrooms with two distinct living zones, with clear potential to incorporate a second internal bathroom as an ensuite to the main bedroom if desired. A central bathroom, dedicated study and excellent storage throughout support everyday ease.
At the heart of the home, the character-rich kitchen features a statement Aga cooker paired with modern conveniences including a concealed dishwasher and integrated exhaust and lighting. Living zones extend effortlessly to a large rear deck, ideal for entertaining, while the private garden beyond offers a rare retreat-style outdoor bath and shower with hot and cold water.
Unseen yet highly valuable features further elevate the home, including solid double-brick construction for natural thermal efficiency, roof insulation, extensive under-house storage, a wine cellar with lighting, and a powered attic with genuine potential to convert into additional bedrooms or living space (STCA). The garage is wide enough to accommodate a car if required and includes a toilet and sink, while a separate studio presents outstanding flexibility as a home office, teenager’s retreat, creative space or wellness studio.
Positioned moments from Gardiners Creek wetlands, walking trails and a bike path connecting toward the city and beyond, the lifestyle offering is exceptional. Tooronga Village, Chadstone Shopping Centre, Malvern Road and High Street precincts are all close by, along with Glen Iris and Gardiner stations, trams, buses and easy Monash Freeway access. Zoned near highly regarded schools, this is a home rich in character today, with outstanding potential for tomorrow.
