If it’s street appeal that sells a house, then this character weatherboard with beautiful lacework and a timeless bullnose verandah won’t last long. Entering the residence you’re acutely aware of the classic features that you’d expect to find in a home of this style.
There are rich Spotted Gum floors flowing throughout the home plus high ceilings, decorative cornices, picture rails and decorative skirtings. The generous robed master bedroom offers a stained-glass feature and a bay window that overlooks the greenery of the front gardens. Three further bedrooms continue down the side of the home, well placed for easy access to the centrally located bathroom. It boasts a walk-in shower, a storage rich vanity with twin basins, a deep bath and an expanse of tiling that creates a sleek modern look.
The expansive living space is a place you’ll enjoy spending time; it is light filled and features an attractive open fireplace with a bespoke timber mantle. This flows through to a considerable zone that houses a more than ample dining area and a contemporary hostess kitchen where stone benchtops adorn gloss cabinets that are complemented by glass splashbacks, and quality stainless steel SMEG appliances. The central island bench makes a social workspace or a great place for casual meals. An extensive bank of bi-fold doors open from here, allowing a harmonious fusion between indoor/outdoor living spaces and creating a place that is perfectly suited for entertaining on a grand scale whilst taking in picturesque vistas across the sizeable yard. The substantial alfresco deck is attractively presented under the home's roofline, made private by the use of timber screening to the boundary. This extends to an open-air section that allows you a choice of places to relax or entertain in style. A decked boardwalk extends to the rear of the property, with lush green grass and fully-grown gardens bordering it on either side, making it a welcome space for children and animals alike.
The residence, which occupies a prime allotment of 709sqm approx, is completed by a number of pleasing extras that include hydronic heating, evaporative cooling, plantation shutters and neutral blinds, a European laundry, a single carport and additional off-street parking.
Desirable amenities surround the home; you’re in close proximity to Mitcham train station, local buses and Eastlink, cafes including The Mabel, a number of popular shopping precincts such as the newly renovated Eastland, Westfield Doncaster, Tunstall Square and central Mitcham, local schools and a variety of open green spaces such as Halliday Park, Yarran Dheran Nature Reserve, Mullum Mullum Creek and the Eastlink Trail. This home is the perfect blend of old style charm and modern-day function; an inspection will not disappoint.
