This charming 1930's built double brick residence has been thoughtfully and expertly renovated to capture the charm of its era, whilst seamlessly integrating a superb modern kitchen, dining and deck extension.
The home has been built in 3 stages starting with the original build in 1938, an extension in 1955 and then the modern addition in 2010. Upon entering the art deco inspired residence, you are welcomed into a spacious entry foyer, a beautiful starting point from which to explore this stunning home. Branching off from here we enter the main bedroom, a generous space featuring built ins and highlighted by majestic views out over the river through original sash windows - what a delightful, sunny start to the day this room will provide its lucky new owner.
Adjacent to the master bedroom is a classy, modern bathroom, complete with shower, sink vanity and toilet. This original western wing of the home is completed by another cosy bedroom also serviced by built in wardrobes, and perfect for a younger child, being close to the bathroom and master.
Back through the entry foyer, we enter the original living room, complete with commanding water views and highlighted by an electric fireplace that really completes the ambience.
From here, the home opens up into a palatial dining area and slick, modern open plan kitchen. Perfect for entertainers, this really is the epicentre of the home with quality Ariston appliances, walk in pantry and generous island bench providing a lovely contrast to the 1930's charm of the original home. The large double-glazed windows and doors that surround this space take full advantage of the spectacular views and sun that the north easterly aspect provides, whilst also providing access to the beautifully presented back garden.
Off either side of this extension are the second stage additions to the house. The large first room provides an additional bedroom, study or living space, complete with trap door down to what could be a teenagers retreat or rumpus. On the southern side of the extension is another bathroom, housing a walk-in shower, bath and vanity, completed by a separate toilet and laundry. Adjacent to this is another bedroom complete with its own heat pump and access to the rear garden - an ideal guest or older child bedroom.
The fully fenced home is surrounded by gorgeous gardens featuring a large variety of fruit trees, terraced vegetable garden, hothouse and character garden shed. The underneath garage has been excavated to extend the storage and work space capability.
