Tucked away in the select enclave of the Narrows is this great ground level starter home. Constructed in an era when breezes and ventilation took precedence over air-conditioning, it is a home which literally breathes. With full louvered walls throughout it all catches every whisper of passing air.
The home is tiled throughout with a pleasant terra cotta coloured tiles. This is in-keeping with the tastefully renovated kitchen and updated bathroom. Cooking in the kitchen is on a 5 burner gas appliance a $$$ saving alternative to the normal electric fitting. Solar hot water also keeps your energy costs down as well. There is a handy tiled verandah adjacent to the back door which keeps the westerly sun off the kitchen area and provides a private outdoor area in any weather.
Both the master bedroom and the living areas have spilt system air-conditioning though for the information the occupants have given me is that these are hardly needed and only get switched on once or twice a year. The home is constructed of clay brick so the home will be here for a long time.
With the home set on a large 769m2 corner allotment the choices are endless if you want to extend the dwelling or wanted to add more shade areas. Only minutes from the city it has excellent road connections whether you are heading to Winnellie, Casuarina or the City.
Priced at an unbeatable price of $485,000 this is a home that should definitely be on your inspection list.
