Updated interiors bring out the best in this heritage home, and include a fresh updated kitchen, stylish bathroom and laundry, and new paint throughout. Important structural works have also been completed, including re-plumbing and re-wiring. Original features have been restored. These include floorboards, skirtings and architraves, etched and stained glass to the front door, cast-iron fireplaces with timber surrounds to the living, and gorgeous timber fretwork to the front veranda. Mod cons include ducted heating throughout and new ceiling fans. In fact, one might say that there?s nothing left to do.
The flexible floorplan provides 3 spacious bedrooms, light and lovely kitchen/meals, and 2 pleasant living areas with open-fires. However, if a formal dining area is desired, the 3rd bed, with built-in sideboards and open fire, is the clear choice.
The 3 queen-sized bedrooms provide plenty of room for rest and play. The renovated bathroom is a vision in white, with stylish semi-frameless shower, modern vanity and storage cupboard, and toilet. The Euro-style laundry is well-equipped for family life with space for washer and dryer.
Unwind with the family in the living room, in front of the flickering flames of the open-fire. The gorgeous lounge has a reproduction fireplace and lush views of the magnolias and kangaroo paws in the front garden.
The sweet kitchen and meals area have been revamped and now boast stainless steel appliances including a gas hob, range hood, and new electric oven and grill. Plenty of bench space provides well for family-sized cooking, and cleverly placed windows allow you to keep an eye on kids playing outside. The meals area enjoys the backdrop of the stunning Ash that provides seasonal shade and colour. Step outside to the spacious outdoor entertaining area for relaxed gatherings with friends. The vast, secure back garden is perfect for young families. However, this space could easily accommodate an extension, double carport, pool or pergola (STCA).
The rear lane meets with both Kilgour and Brownbill Streets, granting hassle-free access to the home. Plenty of parking is provided by the double lock-up garage and 2nd gated drive with a large parking bay for vehicles, caravan or trailer.
Looking as fresh as the day it was built, this beautiful family home is the perfect choice! View ASAP.
