Whoa West Croydon, wait for us! This stunningly renovated and extended Gentleman’s Bungalow is the stylish new face of a suburb that’s taking off.

So, if you’re not already across Queen and Rosetta’s caf/ vintage scene, getting cityside in 10 from West Croydon station, or burning calories in nearby McInerney Reserve, chances are you’re missing out.

Tree-lined and convenient to its character core, hit the big-time on Herbert Road with a triple-fronted bungalow that outshines. It’s golden ratio of 4:2:2 – 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and 2 living areas – will tick boxes for those seeking to feather a family nest on a footy-friendly 740sqm block.

Starting with the elegant dimensions of the era

A hallway that’s wider than most introduces the polished boards, lofty ceilings and contemporary tones that instinctively make you want to fill this home with the people and things you love.

Where last century meets this, bedrooms become living spaces (and vice versa), and entertaining spills outdoors in an extended footprint full of customizable choices.

For example: what passes readily for a living area, study and additional bathroom could favour a return to master bedroom status or guest suite, commanding, as it does, private access to the paved alfresco and luxuriously lawned backyard. For now, Bedroom 2 fulfils that role with ample built-ins and single-step-proximity to the main spa bathroom, while Bedroom 3 – it too has a corner fireplace – becomes the natural candidate for formal dining if desired.

The only areas not subject to change are the almost 25sqm (approx.) formal lounge and adjoining kitchen-dine. Road-test with a crowd and the kitchen delivers spectacularly – a large bifold window servery and sit-up island sharing its fashion-forward colourways and catering kudos equally among indoor and outdoor entertaining spaces.

Beyond: large lawn, veggie patch, fruit trees, wood oven – the simple things in life that make life simply wonderful.

If it’s forever you’re after, (or just a stylish family interlude), Herbert holds the key.
