This charming character home with original features in place is in need of some tender loving care (TLC) to bring it back to its former glory and is priced accordingly.
Original features on offer consist of high ceilings, VJ timber walls and timber floors, an L shaped covered front and side verandah with timber floor and railings, decorative timber breeze ways above the internal door frames, a solid timber front door with original decorative mauve coloured glass overhead from the front entry breezeway. The decorative coloured glass panels continue with the sliding windows in the lounge room and bathroom.
Entry to the home is via the front covered verandah, through the solid timber front door and into the hallway. Three good size bedrooms, the main and second bedrooms are located at the front of the home and lead off from the hallway with its origin honey coloured timber floor. The third bedroom leads off from the dining room area and has additional access to the covered side L shaped verandah. The back of the covered side verandah is partially built in and here you will find the separate toilet and bathroom.
At the end of the hallway is the good size dining room which is large enough to incorporate a study nook or additional sitting room. The dining room offers two door access, one leading to the kitchen with an upright gas stove and oven, a stainless steel sink, timber bench tops and under bench cupboards. The second doorway is to the rectangle shaped cosy lounge room. From this point you can access the covered back deck area with timber floors – just the place to enjoy your morning cuppa before facing the day ahead. From this position, there is access to the back stairs which lead to both the back and side fenced yard with established trees, the garden shed and under the house.
Underneath the house is partially paved and powered and here you will also find the laundry with auto washer taps and a single metal wash tub and a workshop. The instant gas hot water and upright gas stove are serviced by LP bottle gas cylinders located at the back of the home.
Highway access is at your front door, with public transport, service station, fruit and convenience stores and St Peter Claver College all within walking distance.
Yes this former beauty does require some work to restore it to what could be the best character home in the street.
So if you are not afraid to put in the time, effort and elbow grease. Come and inspect this character home and perhaps make it your own.
