Set on a large corner block and across the road from the recently upgraded Parap Swimming Pool and Parap tennis courts, this home is full of old Darwin charm and is in excellent condition. Surrounded by other homes on large blocks this area of Fannie Bay is highly sought after for its close proximity to world class amenity such as the Fannie Bay foreshore, Fannie Bay Race Course and the Darwin Sailing Club.
The home was built to be cool with very high ceilings in the living area that includes high-set louvers to encourage natural airflow through the property. The dining room opens out onto a large private patio which overlooks the rear yard and large swimming pool. Three of the bedrooms are upstairs and open onto a hallway that overlooks the living area with a unique perspective. The bathroom has been renovated and looks stunning, giving a glimpse into the potential of the rest of the house.
Downstairs includes large banks of louvers on either side of the home to allow for cross flow ventilation. The kitchen is a little dated and is almost back in style but is very functional as it is. Outside the home includes the fourth bedroom which is perfect as a guestroom or a study with a toilet in the laundry for added convenience. The large block is somewhat of a blank canvas, with undercover parking for 2 cars, a store room and lots of room for kids to run around safely or plenty of options for additions to the home or a large shed. The wide concrete driveway also allows additional parking flexibility for trailers etc.
