9 Gladstone Street Sandringham

Built in 1926 for the family of Sandringham’s original Shire Engineer, Elandra is a unique find featuring rare Arts and Crafts-era detail and the same innovative concrete construction utilized in Sandringham's beachfront rotunda. Held by just two families since built, this grandly-proportioned three bedroom, 1.5 bathroom home is sympathetically extended; transitioning gracefully from a grand central lounge, to today's sunbathed family living, to a high gabled all-weather alfresco area extending deep into north-facing grounds.

Rich with rare period beauty including lavish leadlight landscapes, fine original timberwork, box-bay windows and vintage fireplace mantles, this fine home is renovated with respect with a granite and Miele appliance kitchen echoing a classic black-and-white scheme and a vast bathroom lit by a spectacular feature window, echoing the home’s lavish leadlight. With a bonus second WC and a well-fitted laundry, the home is recently re-painted and newly carpeted with highest-quality Axminister carpet.

Offering gracious living for today with zoned ducted reverse-cycle air-conditioning, a warming fireplace and tall built-in robes for most bedrooms, the home looks to the future with 11 solar-panels and two-car auto-garage. Even the fruitful corner gardens have been respectfully treated with blooming orchard trees and vegie-boxes.

Located to become the lifetime home of the next lucky family, this landmark corner property is just half a dozen blocks to Sandringham’s village and station, an easy walk to the Primary School and Secondary College (with kindergartens close) and direct down the line to the Brighton private schools and the CBD.
