A new kind of working class; stone-fronted street appeal with endearing villa features from a three-bedroom, one-bathroom home strutting today's interior style with the versatility for both commercial and residential ventures.
If 50/50 each way fits your work-from-home pursuits - as a specialist or finance broker, let's say - then 441 Port Road could hold the key (subject to Council consents) with valuable client parking across the road.
As a rejuvenated, light-filled family home or quality portfolio-filler, its traditional edge awash in on-trend decor suits the young professional or couple perfectly with its strollable metres to Queen Street cafes, the Croydon train station, and a handy clutch of schools and shopping.
From its central arched hallway, high ceilings, decorative fireplaces and freshly laid carpets to the bedrooms and living room, picture rails, new cornices and crisp, LED lighting, the cherry on top is the kitchen upgrade.
Not just for its open plan perspective with wall-to-wall sliding storage, but for its large format floor tiles, subway tile splashbacks, stainless appliances (including a gas cooktop and dishwasher), soft-closing joinery and its dressing of timber-finished benchtops warming its clean simplicity.
Simplicity mirrored in the functional bathroom with its own mini refurb.
A front garden of pebbles and feature magnolias means you're no longer a slave to it, and to the rear, the all-weather pergola gives you an alfresco starting point in view of a lush patch of turf.
That barn-style brick shed? It says anything goes, from tools to storage or a one-day quirky studio. And should your work or after-hours exploits call for it, the double-length, secure carport drives through to the backyard.
Work, play, or invest in both just 15 minutes to the beach, and less than 8 minutes to the city - Croydon says you can.
