Overview

In a prime location that puts the beach, a golf course, and a retail wonderland all within arm's reach, 740 Tapleys Road offers comfortable family living across a 3-bedroom home that's been tastefully refurbished while retaining its mid-60s charm.On arrival, the multi-gabled roofline and exterior stonework give away the property's origins, and purists will be happy to discover other original elements within, such as solid timber floorboards, ornate ceiling roses, decorative lighting fixtures, and timber-framed glass sliding doors.The floor plan promotes household harmony and an easy flow, with the 3 beds branching off one side of the entry hall and the social zones opposite. Each bedroom is fan-cooled with a BIR and the nearby bathroom, while still sporting its original fit-out, is a sizeable space that could be upgraded with ease (STCC).Glass-panelled, timber-framed sliding doors make an impressive entrance from the front foyer into an air-conditioned combined living/dining room. The brick-framed original fireplace is still evident here, and modern sliders to the carport, combined with twin windows to the street, bathe this space in natural light.The updated kitchen will bring a smile to the home cook because this tiled culinary hub has reams of 'timber'-finished storage, striking black benchtops, and a full cohort of sparkling stainless-steel appliances. It also opens straight onto a lengthy rear verandah where a high, gabled roof and ceiling fans keep the air flowing on even the stillest summer day.While there's plenty of secure play space across the mix of lawn and open paved areas in the fenced backyard, you're likely to spend weekends golfing, enjoying beach swims, or tucking into sunset meals at Henley Square. It's only a 5-minute drive from here to West Beach, and the kids can walk to Barratt Reserve's sporting facilities and buses to get to Henley High.
