A home that is truly rare to find and admired by many, 2 Allan Street will be sure to fulfil the needs of any family looking for a timeless home. Grand in proportions and rich in character, the home is located in an enviable position to make the most of inner-city living, only a short 2km stroll or drive to Queens Park and the CBD. This home has a lot to offer, with large and multiple living spaces, spacious bedrooms, renovated and refreshed throughout and a Granny flat that is perfect for the larger family or the extra income ... as well as many things the eye cannot see.
Entering the main house, you are greeted with huge living proportions. The home has a perfect verandah for entertaining and taking in the sunset with a beautiful outlook of the city surrounds. Walking through the upstairs side entrance, you are welcomed with a large formal media room with a reverse cycle air-conditioner and storage cupboards as well as an office with a built-in workspace.

The main open living/dining space is truly special - large enough for any gathering but cozy enough for just the family. Complete with commercial fairy lights, built-in library, air-conditioning and insulation to the roof and northern exterior walls, it is a space that you will enjoy living in. The kitchen has recently been renovated, with induction cooking, a 1 and 1/2 electric ovens, dishwasher, and an abundance of bench this space is sure to impress. The renovated family bathroom hosts a large shower, bath, toilet, and vanity. Additionally, the laundry is complete with a separate toilet, shelving, and tub as well as a mudroom.
Heading through the main entrance downstairs, you will be surprised by all the additional room and opportunities on offer. The main entrance opens to a spacious, carpeted sitting room with air-conditioning which flows through to the granny flat which is perfect for the extended family or as the current sellers have previously used it for, additional income through short term accommodation. The granny flat hosts a sizeable kitchen with electric cooking facilities, an open dining/living room with reverse cycle air-conditioning, a spacious carpeted bedroom, an additional multi-purpose room and bathroom with shower, vanity, and toilet. Additionally downstairs, there is a large under house basement with plumbed water, used for an extra laundry area and gym.
Standing proudly, this property has a street presence second to none, shown through its grand size and character appeal on the fully fenced 771m² allotment. In addition to the verandah, there is a beautiful paved area with a fire pit for those who love to entertain. For those who love to enjoy their morning coffee outside in the sun, you will find yourself at the rear of the home taking in the eastern morning sun in a great outdoor sitting area. A gated driveway provides off-street parking for multiple vehicles. A lawn-locker garden shed is also provided for additional storage space, in addition to 5 rainwater tanks totalling 18,000 litres (one plumbed directly to the downstairs under house storage room and a second plumbed directly to the main laundry to save on water usage).
