Ideally situated in one of Kensington Gardens leafiest streets, this regal, stone fronted Return Verandah Villa has been proudly maintained by just a handful of owners in it’s over eighty year history. A major update was completed around twenty years ago which compliments an abundance of authentic character detail with modern comforts and conveniences, whilst offering limitless potential for extension on its large corner allotment of approximately 1398 square metres.
There are four large bedrooms, all accessed from the grand hallway. An ensuite services the main bedroom.
A versatile mix of formal and informal living ensures that your family and guests are comfortably provided for. The formal lounge at the front enjoys morning sunshine through large windows, and the adjoining formal dining, which will easily seat twelve, has the return door.
The large kitchen which has gas hotplates, double sink and a dishwasher can also provide an informal meals area.
At the rear a huge tiled family room with built in bar enjoys lovely views of the rear garden through large picture windows. And so it’s not too far to walk for another drink, simply go downstairs from the family room to the cellar.
Behind the laundry is a third bathroom to ensure anyone using the large in-ground pool or spa isn’t splashing water through the main living areas.
In keeping with the classic character of it’s era all the expected features are here, including polished floors, open fireplaces, ornate high ceilings and cornices, plus of course beautiful lead light.
With all this and the vendors very definite commitment to sell here is your opportunity to acquire a classic Australian character masterpiece in a very tightly held locality.
