Adored by the same family for over three decades, this welcoming 1920s home is being offered to the market for the first time in 31 years. Welcoming, character-filled, and surrounded by established gardens, 14 Highgate is a home where memories have been made, and where new ones are ready to begin.
Set on a generous 769sqm allotment, the section enjoys flat lawn areas, established trees, and harbour, suburban, and ocean views that stretch across the city. The timeless weatherboard façade with its charming lattice-trimmed porch offers immediate appeal, perfectly reflecting the character that continues within.
Spacious at approximately 220sqm, the home offers four bedrooms and two inviting living rooms, providing flexibility and comfort for growing families. One of the bedrooms open through French doors to the north facing porch, a peaceful spot to enjoy morning coffee and the garden outlook. The front separate lounge is an elegant and sophisticated space, warmed by an open Jetmaster fireplace, while the second lounge and dining area features a recent inbuilt Masport wood burner, creating an inviting family hub. Two heat pumps and ceiling insulation further ensure year-round comfort throughout the home.
A well-appointed bathroom is conveniently positioned at the end of the hallway, featuring a modern vanity and a large shower.
The kitchen carries a relaxed farmhouse aesthetic, complete with a large walk-in pantry offering ample storage and preparation space. A spacious adjoining laundry enhances family functionality with excellent storage also.
The exterior was professionally repainted around three years ago, and the home underwent substantial rewiring in 2015, including a new switchboard. These upgrades complement the evident care and pride the current owners have shown throughout their long tenure.
Positioned in desirable Belleknowes, this address offers easy access to popular parks, sought-after schooling, and the shopping hubs of Mornington and Roslyn, with the CBD only minutes away. A single garage and additional garden storage complete the package.
After 31 years of cherished ownership, the decision to downsize has not been made lightly, this is a truly special home that now awaits its next chapter.
