Upon an elevated corner block within the sought-after Golf Links Estate, this traditional weatherboard home has large rooms and ornate character features, complemented by soaring ceilings, sash and leadlight windows and polished timber floors. Greeted by a formal entrance, the beautiful lounge room features an open fireplace, ceiling rose and fan, adjoining the nautical-inspired alfresco deck with shade sails. Stunning stained glass windows illuminate the dining area, warmed by a pot-belly heater and overlooked by the neat, well-equipped kitchen with a dishwasher. 3 generous bedrooms with picture rails and decorative cornices share a large classic bathroom featuring a timber vanity, separate bath and shower and a toilet. This spacious bathroom has excellent potential for renovation, perhaps adding a clawfoot bath or starting over for a new, modern look. The large private backyard also features a bungalow/home office/ fourth bedroom with an adjoining shed, plus an in-ground octagonal pool. The house has been re-stumped with concrete, with updated wiring and plumbing and further highlights include: ducted heating, ceiling fans, quality window furnishings and a drive-through carport. In a quiet, well-revered estate close to central Croydon, this charming home is also handy to transport, shopping, schools and parks, with nearby buses and train stations.
