Overview

This solid brick period residence presents a wonderful opportunity on a deep, west-facing allotment approximately 674 square metres in size. Nestled on a picturesque, plane tree-lined avenue, the property boasts immediate appeal for families drawn to classic character and generous living spaces, while also offering the potential to extend or create a new luxurious family home subject to council approval.

A broad verandah welcomes visitors into a wide central hall that leads to a gracious sitting room and a grand formal dining area that can also serve as a third bedroom. High ceilings accentuate these spaces, which feature beautiful timber floors flowing throughout. The sunlit living and dining rooms are complemented by a well-appointed timber kitchen, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere for everyday living and entertaining.

The living areas open onto a large deck that overlooks a private, deep west-facing garden. This tranquil outdoor space is enhanced by a majestic Canary Palm as a focal point, along with a freestanding studio that serves as a gym, home office, or creative retreat at the rear of the property.

The home includes two generous double bedrooms and two pristine bathrooms, accommodating family needs comfortably. Modern conveniences such as an alarm system, CCTV, ducted heating, reverse cycle air conditioning, laundry facilities, and a garage add to the property's functionality and comfort.
