This charming home really does have to be seen to be appreciated. Almost too private to photograph from the street due to its lush tropical gardens, it is deceptively spacious inside and really will impress the fussiest of buyers looking for a home with plenty of period charm. Situated in a lovely quiet tree lined neighbourhood the location is very handy to the CBD and close to all amenities. Added to that the large 809 m2 block means you have plenty of room to spread your wings.
The original timber cottage was built pre-war and was extended some time ago effectively doubling the internal living space. It just oozes character and boasts many of the original sought after period features such as glorious polished wooden floors, high ceilings, tongue in groove internal walls, weatherboard cladding and French doors. The front part of the house incorporates a cosy veranda and entry foyer, comfortable lounge area with a real historical feel, three bedrooms all with built in wardrobes, super tidy two way bath room off the master bedroom and separate w.c.
The rear extension houses a spacious dining/family area flooded with natural light, a large galley style kitchen and a roomy internal laundry area with ample storage which also doubles as a study nook. The attractive parquetry floors really add to this part of the home. To the rear of the house is a lovely al fresco outdoor entertaining area overlooking the stunningly landscaped back yard.
The house is air conditioned throughout and is fully fenced and security screened. Two vehicles can be parked under cover courtesy of the large double carport. Our house proud client really has created something special in this property. You are bound to fall in love with this delightful house, the gorgeous tropical gardens and the quiet central neighbourhood.
