33 Park Avenue, Blackheath NSW 2785

Recent years have been kind to this lovely remnant of Blackheath's gracious past. Easy to be charmed by this 1930s brick & weatherboard Californian bungalow that is in the perfect ‘sweet spot' position: 500m from the centre of town on a quiet, cherry-tree lined street. North-facing and overlooking the beautiful expanse of the Blackheath Memorial Park, the borrowed views sweep to the north incorporating one of Blackheath's majestic Sequoias. The pool, Rocket and playground are just a short stroll through parkland away. Walk 5 minutes to the monthly produce markets with baskets in hand and wander back laden with flowers, local apples and seedlings for the sunny veggie patch.
Over the last 5 years the property has been extensively renovated, including a recent new bathroom, kitchen and the additions of an efficient solar power system and a rainwater tank. A reworking of a cosy and practical dining/family area that spills into the backyard via French doors provides the second of two living areas. Throughout the home lovely period touches such as leadlight doors, brick fire surrounds, picture rails, wood fires and original pinewood floors all lend a wonderful sense of character. Soak up the sunshine that floods through the house across the day, and enjoy the quiet serenity of the private, covered front veranda, roomy enough for breezy, shaded summer lunches with friends.
With an extra-wide, quarter acre block and rear lane access, the potential to further develop the garden is a huge bonus, there's even room for a studio or garage addition. The garden slopes away gently to the north and is a gorgeous mix of perennials, specimen natives, dotted with fruit trees and masses of spring and summer flowering bulbs. A mature cherry, apple and Japanese maple are stunning feature trees that seasonally pop with colour and provide structure year round.
