Stretching wide to capture the Northern sun across three front rooms, this street-facing, stand alone 3 bedroom 1920s home is peacefully nestled behind high fencing both front and side, providing privacy and security within easy-care grounds.
Beyond the front lawn and welcoming porch, the entrance hall reveals soaring ceilings and timber floors flowing through a beautifully scaled, single-level floorplan oozing warmth and laced with art deco character features such as leadlight, deep skirtings, stunning decorative ceilings and original doors and door frames.
The sun-splashed rooms at the front include the living/dining room and two bedrooms - the master is a particularly generous size and both boast ornamental timber mantels, built-in robes and sculptural stainless steel ceiling fans; while a third double bedroom is situated towards the rear of the home.
The living/dining room flows into the smart monochrome eat-in kitchen, and while it has been up styled with deep slate grey coloured flooring, black and white tiled splash-backs, black bench tops, white cabinetry and stainless steel Fisher & Paykel oven with gas cooktops, it does provide the ideal foundation for further updating.
The updated sparkling white bathroom showcases a deep soaker tub, modern vanity with loads of storage and a separate blue-tiled shower. Completing the layout is a white-tiled laundry with back door access to the compact and perfectly private rear lawned garden.
Year round comfort is provided by ducted reverse-cycle air-conditioning, ceiling fans in all the bedrooms, plus a split-system air-conditioner in the master, and also included are the following:-
• Security system (not monitored)
• Allocated carport at rear, where 3 (later-build) courtyard homes are situated
• Rinnai gas HWS (temperature controlled)
