THIS commanding three-storey Mentone brick home provides fun family living on a grand scale.
From the onset, 25 Avenza St’s opulence is on display, starting with the brick veneer facade with large windows that offer glimpses of what’s to come inside, including chandeliers and feature wooden roof panelling.
The big family entertainer will go under the hammer on Saturday, June 30 with $1.4-$1.54 million price expectations.
“This ultra-accommodating home is a superior example of the ‘70s era and has been renovated where it counts,” Hodges Mentone agent Jason C. Swift said.
“It will be sure to keep families entertained all year round.”
Past a waterfall and up the front stairs the home’s entrance opens to the first floor and main living hub.
A large lounge room, with a wet bar and balcony, and a formal dining room are separated by an arched-brick wall.
