Tucked away in a magnificent riverside location with beautiful landscaped gardens on a large block sits this 1960′s retro family home, renovated, rewired and insulated yet maintaining the original features that are so attractive of the era.
It really is a private oasis, with entry off a leafy tree-lined driveway with beautiful water views of Geilston Bay and the yachts that moor in the calm tranquil waters. And there are plenty of locations to enjoy both the views and all day sunshine, with the fitting L-shaped design and full length deck.
The in-built wood-heater with copper flu and slate bricks is a lovely central feature of the formal lounge and dining area with signature high ceiling. And you can imagine martinis being served from the corner bar unit in the lounge. The kitchen fits beautifully with its earthy tones, breakfast bar, wall oven and pantry. There is a casual dining nook on the other side of the kitchen leading to the alcove porch and a perfect afternoon tea or pre-dinner drink location. This leads out to the outdoor entertaining and barbecue area.
All on one level with three bedrooms. The main bathroom and separate toilet services the two bedrooms, then it is down the hallway to the main bedroom and ensuite. All of the bedrooms have original timber built in wardrobes and are nicely proportioned and there are lovely water views from virtually every room in the house.
There is a large second living area or rumpus room on the northern tip of the L-shaped structure, an absolute bonus to make it the perfect family home.
There is a double carport, a workshop and additional off street parking, all on the same level as the house, making returning to unload the car of groceries or children a breeze.
Lindisfarne Village is walking distance, transport is close by yet this waterside home is just five minutes’ to the Tasman Bridge and a quick commute to the CBD.
A great lifestyle home for the family that wants great value for money and plenty of space to cater for everyone’s needs in a superb setting close to everything yet private and peaceful.
