Sitting at the top of Hestercombe Road in Granton, this comfortable, 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom brick veneer family home with Colorbond roof has a great street profile and expansive views of Granton, the River Derwent and Bridgewater.
Built in 1996, it is predominantly “north-facing”, which means that it attracts “all-day” sunshine and light for enhanced “liveability” as well as offering extensive views.
The main entrance is through the foyer into the impressive 34 square metre formal lounge then into the 37 square metre open-plan family/dining room and kitchen. The formal lounge has a Pureheat Royal 8.5kW Electric Heater.
The open-plan family/dining room is a “sun-trap” for reading and relaxing during the day and is the focus of the home with the option of a Norseman Wood Heater to keep the home warm during cooler months. It then provides access to the extensive 28 square metre north-facing wooden deck which is an extended, living area with expansive views and protection from sea-breezes in summer.
The 15 square metre modern kitchen has generous storage and bench space and features a double-door step-in pantry.
This home has substantial bedrooms with master bedroom (14.1m2) also having a walk-in robe and ensuite bathroom. The 2nd and 3rd double bedrooms, on main level, have built in wardrobes and easy access to the main bathroom, including stepped bath, vanity and shower.
Downstairs, there is a 4th bedroom and there are extra power points and media outlets in a generous 22 square metre rumpus/utilities room which could easily become an office, a studio or a 5th bedroom – well isolated from other areas of the home. This downstairs area also has a separate toilet and laundry / “wet area”.
The large (35 square metre) lined, lockable garage has internal access to the main level of the home. It also has a laundry tub with electrical connections and an auto-panel door access of 4.1 metres.
The property, with approximately 854 square metres land area, has been asphalt sealed and landscaped at street f
