Privately set back from Howe Street behind tall hedging, this classic 1940's weatherboard home is going to wow you inside with its sublime architectural renovation and extension, rear lane access, and 4 car garage with self-contained granny flat above.
Hallmark period features including ornate ceilings, Kauri floors, and plate ledges add heart-warming charm to the original rooms of the home, before a spacious open plan living area creates a bold statement of contemporary style at the rear. A soaring cathedral ceiling enhances the sense of space, clerestory windows and louvres bring in an abundance of light, crossflow, and garden views, while a Heat & Glo fireplace adds winter warmth into this soul-soothing space. Outside, there's plenty of room to relax and entertain backdropped by the beautifully landscaped gardens. The four-car garage accessed via rear lane allows you to park all the cars and toys, while the granny flat above has its own entrance and offers 50sqm of private, air-conditioned space for guests, tenants or as short-stay accommodation.
Beautiful Lambton Park with its new footpath and rotunda is directly across the road and Lambton pool is 200m away, and there's a fabulous choice of cafes, corner pubs, clubs and local shops to explore at both Lambton and New Lambton.
