This charming family home is being sold for the first time in over 30 years and is ready for a fresh start. The three bedroom home of approximately 126.45m2 is spread over 714m2 of land on a quiet and elevated loop street and is the ideal canvas to renovate or build your dream home. This perfectly situated block offers the rare opportunity of an affordable entry into popular Chifley.
On entry, you are greeted with a living room featuring floor to ceiling windows letting in plenty of natural light, as well as a retro timber panelled wall with an electric fireplace warming the room. At the rear is a formal dining room with opaque glass panelled sliding doors separating it from the living room on one side and kitchen on the other. The kitchen looks out onto the backyard and includes a meals area with a northerly aspect. From here you will find direct access to the separate laundry which leads you beyond to the large, landscaped backyard and screened outdoor entertaining area.
The bedrooms are all generous in size and have large garden facing windows, with two of them including built-in-robes. The main bathroom includes a bath and a shower, and there is a separate toilet as well as linen closets in the entry and the hallway.
The front and back gardens of this home have been particularly well cared for. The front garden is manicured and leafy with established trees, rose bushes and shrubs creating privacy from the street. The back yard is spacious and includes a veggie patch, garden shed, established fruit trees and garden beds.
This much loved property is in original condition but has been well cared for over the years and is simply in need of a new family to bring it back to its former glory. The location is ideal, being close to excellent schools, local shops, the Westfield Woden shopping centre, and only a short drive to the Canberra Hospital, Parliamentary Triangle and City Centre. Whether it's a simple update, an extension, or a knock down rebuild, this home will give you the perfect opportunity to create your dream home.
