53 Bernard Street Cheltenham, VIC 3192

Positioned on a generous corner allotment in one of Cheltenham's most convenient and tightly held pockets, this charming two-bedroom residence with a separate studio delivers space, flexibility and exciting future potential. Whether you're entering the market, investing, renovating or planning your next move, this is an opportunity with genuine upside.

A wide frontage and expansive front yard create immediate presence, with a paved path leading to a welcoming porch and central hallway. Inside, the home blends character and comfort with a functional, light-filled layout.

Both bedrooms are well-proportioned. The main includes a large built-in robe, wide window with roller shutters and plush carpet underfoot, while the second bedroom enjoys excellent natural light, ceiling fan comfort and appealing period detail. The central bathroom features a stylish vanity, corner shower and beautiful stained-glass window, allowing natural light while maintaining privacy. A separate linen closet adds further practicality.

The lounge is warm and inviting, complete with ceiling fan, corner windows and roller shutters for year-round comfort and security. Double doors allow separation when desired, while an elegant archway connects through to the dining zone, where a reverse-cycle split system provides heating and cooling to service both the dining and adjoining lounge area.

The kitchen is spacious and well-equipped, offering extended bench space, a Fisher & Paykel four-burner gas cooktop, tiled splashback, generous pantry and ample cabinetry. A large window above the sink captures leafy backyard views. The adjoining laundry provides bench space, sink, separate toilet and direct outdoor access.

Outdoors is where this property truly shines. The substantial backyard offers room to entertain, extend or enhance (STCA). A covered alfresco zone provides the perfect retreat, while side access, a freestanding shed and a single lock-up garage deliver excellent practicality. The separate studio with dual windows adds valuable flexibility as a home office, gym, creative space or guest retreat.

Location is key. Just doors from Cheltenham Secondary College and within easy walking distance to Highett Reserve and Le Page Primary School, the position is ideal for families. Westfield Southland, Southland Station and Kingston Heath Primary School are moments away, placing shopping, transport and lifestyle amenity firmly at your doorstep.

Corner blocks with versatility, land and location are increasingly rare. This is a smart move in a blue-chip Bayside setting.
