This circa 1926 weatherboard home has been impeccably maintained and lovingly extended over the years in order to keep pace with modern living. The humble original home now boasts five bedrooms plus a study, two living areas, a renovated kitchen as well as a 6kw solar system and glorious open plan family living area.
However, modern living has definitely not come at the expense of any charm and this character home still showcases wide Jarrah floorboards, wonderful 13ft ceilings with decorative roses, corbelled arches , timber French doors to the front verandah and an original fireplace.
Entry is through the original home which has been beautifully maintained and updated with essentials such as built-in robes in the bedrooms, individual split system air conditioning and light fittings while the master bedroom now has a semi-ensuite for modern convenience.
The hallway opens to a stunning open plan kitchen meals family room that blends the original with the contemporary by retaining the Jarrah floorboards, deep skirting boards and high ceilings with the addition of a modern gas fireplace. It has been pared back by the use of simple downlights and neutral tones while the highlight windows create a fabulous tree-top outlook from the upper level.
The kitchen is finished in timeless white with a stone benchtop as well as a state-of-the-art Technika 900mm freestanding cooker and rangehood along with ample storage space. The study (or playroom) is conveniently located next to the kitchen and the second bathroom and additional queen size bedrooms have been included in the design.
In summer, open the wall of bi-fold timber doors to enjoy outdoor living on the covered alfresco complete with ceiling fans and a timber deck overlooking the lush gardens and lawn while the kids cool off in the swimming pool.
East Victoria Park in the 1920′s had only a handful of roads and there was a tram to the city but it was a growing suburb with lovely weatherboard homes and this one stands as a celebration of the era but with every modern convenience regarded as essential nearly 100 years later.
