3 Lara St, Howrah TAS

Open plan living, a classic colour scheme and smart design ideas have ensured a clever makeover of this single level Howrah home. And when combined with its great location, together with its undercover backyard entertaining area, it really has fun and party time written all over it.

Its main appeal is its open plan design, giving a great sense of space and light with easy flow from room to room. As soon as you enter the front door, you are instantly in the heart of the home, with a spacious open living and entertaining space. On the right is the smart sleek kitchen with its white cabinetry and black granite bench tops offset by timber flooring. It features stylish European appliances, including stainless steel dishwasher, oven and rangehood. It has a breakfast bar and plenty of bench space. There is a large fridge recess. Off the breakfast bar is the carpeted dining and family area. Two steps down through a large open doorway is the living area, complete with wood heater, but also a wall mounted heat pump. Large floor to ceiling windows let plenty of natural light into this space, and you could easily imagine hosting a party for 80 without any trouble in this combined area.
A study/work station has been cleverly built into the wall space off the dining area.

There are three double bedrooms, all with built-in robes and each continuing the classic, white, charcoal and black colour scheme of the house. There is another smaller room leading to the outdoor barbecue area which is currently set up as a casual sitting room but could easily be adapted to a child's bedroom or guest room with sofa. The bathroom is tiled white with black highlights. It has a large wall mounted mirror, white vanity, shower and bath.
A fully secure canvas-covered outdoor terrace area and room for outdoor dining, sure to be a hit with family and friends. There is also a carport and three garden sheds for storage.

The current owner has been considering building a shed in the backyard and has plans designed and approved for a garage complete with bathroom. They have also applied for and received a Building Permit for these plans.

This is a classy complete renovation which will certainly appeal to those who love entertaining, particularly young couples looking for a home to suit now and when they start a family.
