Perfectly located just minutes from the centre of town, this 1930s Californian Bungalow style home, which was recently renovated and expanded in 2010 is sure to impress every person that walks through the door. This area is arguably Elderslies most sought after destination, renowned for its country feel and relaxed lifestyle, yet so close to Camden CBD. The prestigious home boasts 5 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, in-ground pool and a double lock up garage complete with home office and workspace.
The traditional, yet modern feel of this home is established right from the outset, with the original wooden floors, 10-foot ornate fibrous plasterboard ceilings all featured in the front corridor. As you walk through the home, traditional features are seamlessly combined with more modern inclusions. The front part of the home is also double brick.
There are two bedrooms which are situated adjacent to the main corridor, both boasting carpet, ceiling fans, large windows and oversized built in wardrobes. The bedrooms also feature the traditional ornate ceilings, something which is so rare to see in a restored home. One of these bedrooms also features a large gas fireplace.
At the end of the corridor is another oversized bedroom, complete with its very own ensuite not often seen in new homes today. Your eyes are drawn to the chandelier and high ceilings as soon as you walk through the door. On top of this, there are built in wardrobes and a traditional stained glass window. However, it is the ensuite which truly sets this home apart, with a semi-frameless shower, single vanity, 20mm Caesar stone benchtop, dual mirror and wall tiles which almost span the floor all the way to the ceiling.
The study/sitting room is centrally located in the home, complete with its own restored fireplace, which is no longer usable, but was originally used for cooking. This room can either be used as an informal study or transformed to a sitting room and give the home yet another living room.
You are now entering the renovated portion of the home; however, it still maintains the elegant and luxurious feel. The next bedroom boasts an entire wall with a painted mural on the exposed brick which is a must see. This bedroom also features the same built in wardrobe as the other bedrooms.
Opposite the abovementioned bedroom is the main bathroom, featuring a glass shower, 40mm Caesar stone benchtop, free-standing bath and high wall tiles. Traditional features such as the original and ornate air vents are also present, which gives not only the bathroom, but the whole home an added layer of style.
The open plan kitchen, living and dining rooms combine to form the heart of the home, with 11-foot ceilings, Blackbutt timber floors and an array of luxury inclusions. The kitchen boasts a multitude of features, including large island Caesarstone benchtop, abundant cupboard and drawer space, complete with ornate handles, Smeg microwave, Smeg oven and 4 burner electric cooktop, as well as a number of windows with a view over the paved alfresco and pool.
The master bedroom, which is situated adjacent to the living and dining rooms boast high ceilings creating space, with a fan and ducted air conditioning ensuring comfort all year round. The ensuite maintains this same level of quality and luxury, boasting a big shower, 40mm Caesarstone benchtop, single vanity and oversized mirror. The toilet is separated from the rest of the ensuite via a door, adding a further layer of functionality to the bathroom.
The outdoor alfresco area features large pavers and a perfect space for entertaining, overlooking the salt water pool with a brand new glass fence and solar provision. Behind the pool is a standalone games room/mancave, which if required, could be transformed into a granny flat (STCA). It will be hard to get the kids, whether young or young at heart, to leave this space, complete with a bar, sink, small bathroom and TV mount. Adjacent to the games room is the garage, with massive ceilings, perfect for storing larger boats and cars as required. On top of all the extreme amounts of space, there is also a spot for storage or a workspace, which can be used for whatever the purchaser sees fit.
As part of the extension to the garage a home office is perfect for running a business from home, separate from the rest of the house. With wooden floors and a window to fill the room with natural light, there is nothing you have to do but move in and make it your own.
