This lovingly preserved home features a practical design, space to grow and is excellently located near parks, schools and public transport. It has been impeccably maintained in its original condition, lending it an air of retro charm, and could be enjoyed as is or updated for a modern feel.
A three bedroom cream brick bungalow, the home is set back on the block behind a generous lawned area and feature tree. An enclosed carport at left has a roller door for secure vehicle storage, with ample off street parking for further vehicles in front. Recently refurbished tiled roof including new gutter guard and front and rear security screen doors for privacy and security. The front door features an ornate lion’s head knocker, its style echoed by the feature lights in the lounge and dining rooms.
The home is carpeted throughout, with the entry leading via sliding doors to an open plan lounge and dining room on the left and to three double bedrooms on the right. Timber wall panelling adorns the living areas, which communicate with the kitchen via a serving hatch and archway door. Built in bookcases between the entry and lounge are perfect for showcasing your collections.
Buttercup yellow cabinetry and white laminate counter tops make the kitchen as delightfully kitsch as it is light and airy. There is plenty of storage space and ample working surface in this lovely little room, evocative of pleasant childhood memories, but if you prefer a more modern look this could be achieved without major work.
All three bedrooms can accommodate a double bed with ease, with the master bedroom offering a wall of built in robes and a split cycle air conditioning unit for summer comfort. Generous windows spill light into the rooms, which are decorated in soothing pastels.
Behind the home stretches a long pergola which lets in filtered light over a paved area large enough to seat a crowd for outdoor entertaining. Up three brick steps and separated from the outdoor entertaining area via a hedge is the garden, featuring a huge low maintenance lawn and established trees and shrubs. The space is large enough for children to run around or you could even install a pool (SCA).
This perfect family home is situated across the road from Packham West Primary school and Children’s Centre as well as enjoying plenty of nearby green play spaces. Down the street is the Hackham IGA and speciality shops, while a short distance up the road is Honeypot Road with its frequent buses. Main South Road is a few minutes’ drive away, providing fast access into the city centre.
