A home from a time where character was king, with a price tag from a time where houses where cheaper, this nifty cottage is a real find!
It spacious front yard is blanketed in lawn and featuring a sloped driveway leading around to the rear of the home.
Raised up above the block, the frontage of the home is accessed by a quaint set of steps up to the frontal sunroom entrance, the first glimpse of the character floorboards that can be found within the home.
The first of the queen bedrooms interconnects with the second, meaning it makes for a wonderful kid’s room and play space, or two separate bedrooms depending on your needs.
They each feature modern beige carpet and chunky sash windows and are enhanced by the sultry tones of a rich grey feature wall for a contemporary twist.
At the heart of the home, an open plan style lounge room with archway through to the combined kitchen and dining space makes for a wonderfully social central living quarters.
A state of the art cinema setup and lounge suite can be paired with a cosy dining setting to make the most of the spacious area and provide comfort for all occasions.
High ceilings enhance the feel of the space, while French style windows which overlook the main yard allow natural light to stream in an add a touch of elegance to the space.
Jarrah floorboards flow throughout the older style kitchen, which while dated, is neat and handy, with a gas upright oven and stove, beige cabinets and wood look bench tops.
Spice up the space with a brand new DIY kit kitchen or a full scale renovation and you will easily and affordably enhance the whole core of the home.
Down a separate hall is access to the homes third bedroom, a queen size space with room for occasional furniture which overlooks the rear yard.
Step down from the kitchen to the sunken rear sunroom which connects to the homes laundry and bathroom spaces.
The bathroom has been refreshed with modern grey tiles, a white Queen Anne style storage vanity, toilet and nice deep bath with shower fittings mounted above it.
Stepping outside, the homes rear patio area doubles as a carport, but could easily be refurbished or extended to create both garaging and outdoor entertaining space.
The spacious yard is in the most part at the side of the home, creating boundless options for landscaping, extensions and more, while the rear section is neat and sweet with its existing retaining, lawn, established trees and colourbond fencing beyond the patio.
As one last gesture, the home offers up one last perk- a location that is just a couple of minutes’ drive from the centre of town, a position that makes life oh so handy!
Currently leased at $260 per week to October 2015, the home is the perfect set-and-forget investment, and a cheap addition to your portfolio.
Or, if you are a new buyer looking to make your start in the property ownership market, it is a neat, well established place to start!
