Spacious, tastefully updated, character stone-fronted home of 4 bedrooms (or 3 plus study), grand portico and entrance hall with granite floors, sitting room, formal dining, living room with wood fire and French doors to a fabulous rear entertaining area (complete with salt-chlorinated swimming pool and paved pool-side covered entertaining area). All set on a conveniently located block of approx 968m2, allowing for an impressive circular driveway complete with 2 electronic gated entrances. The gardens are a feature – with immaculately manicured hedges and assorted trees.

Located conveniently to the city, shopping and public transport, plus cosmopolitan Norwood.

Polished floor boards and double leadlight hardwood doors give the home an Austerity feel. High, ornate, patterned ceilings in each room flow the character feel throughout the house.

Daikin ducted reverse-cycle air-conditioning is a modern feature throughout.

BIR’s are a feature in both the king size master bedroom and double-size second bedroom.

The 3rd bedroom has dual windows facing the rear garden, receiving lovely morning sun from the East.

The 4th bedroom (or study) lets in tremendous natural light, with windows facing each of West, North and East. This would also be ideal for a reading/sunroom. A/C duct and ceiling fan make this room comfortable all year round.

The most striking features of the kitchen are the granite bench tops, quality timber cupboards and slate flooring. S/S gas hotplates, electric wall oven, dishwasher, water filter and skylight make this a pleasant place for the resident chef to work their magic. They are not separated from the action here though, as the kitchen looks over the slate-floored family/living room.

The rear paved pergola and verandah, which look out to the enclosed pool area and rear garden with lawn and beautifully presented hedges make for such an enjoyable outdoor space.

The bathroom is an Art Deco original, with separate bath and shower, plus small vanity, skylight and exhaust fan/heater. There is potential for the purchaser to add their own touches if they wish.

Car-parking is not an issue – as both a double-length lock-up garage with roller-door and other off-street parking are available. Alternatively, you could use the second half of the garage as a workshop/storage.

Highlights:

– The much sought after Eastern Suburbs location – Poet’s Corner!

– Secure rear yard (room for children and pets to play in a safe environment)

– Comfortable, character home, with modern amenities and plenty of family warmth.
