There’s a home office upstairs, and a bedroom/studio with bathroom over the garage is handy. Walk to the beach and restaurants. “It’s ready to move into,” the agent says.

64 Beaver Street, Malvern East

Interior designers at Hecker Guthrie have worked their magic on the extension of this magnificent Federation house in the Gascoigne Estate.
