In 1947 homes were in short supply with ex servicemen coming back from the war, settling down and having families. The Myers family was most fortunate their home had been built by a local quality builder, Boswarva, and was located west of Brighton road at 12 College Road Somerton Park, just a short stroll to the beach, shops and bus. Its Art Dco design, with rendered front and tiled roof looks as good today, as it did in 1947, having been well maintained over the years, being set amongst other Quality homes. Now 62 years later the family has grown up, and the owner is reluctantly moving into a retirement village. Which ever way you look at it this home has potential. Situated on a 703 square metre, wide fronted block with a well maintained good looking home, it offers comfortable living as is, or is ideal for extending (with its north facing to the rear of the block ensuring bright rooms in the future). Some of its neighbours have been demolished over the years and so the site is also a possible building site for future redevelopment. Currently it offers a space heated formal sitting room with adjoining dining room. The kitchen was replaced about 2 years ago and has a breakfast bar, and the 3 bedrooms and single bathroom complete the home. There is a detached studio with a basin, ideal as a playroom or art room and the four car garage has a pit and offers abundant storage.

The well maintained grounds with rain water tank complete this appealing residence.
