Nestled on a beautiful oak-lined street, this is a character-filled extended two storey 1930's heritage duplex in a superb location, close to the CBD and the lake. The original part of the home displays all of the hallmarks of 1930's character including 10ft battened ceilings, timber sash windows, picture rails, Cypress pine floors, solid timber doors, and a magnificent, Art-Deco fireplace (now converted to mains gas).

The extension done during the 1970's has added extra utility and the home now offers 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and 2 living areas. Standouts for me are the formal lounge with fireplace and the spacious dining/meals/family area, which is a great space.

The kitchen was beautifully renovated just last year and has a lovely modern French Provincial feel. Complete with a Belling oven and Bosch super quiet dishwasher which are top of the range, the kitchen is also fitted with quality Italian porcelain tiles & German soft touch drawer mechanisms. The home is attractive from the front and faces north to the rear, inviting further extension in the future. The gardens are delightful and rambling, with a superb vegetable garden and a large shed (once a garage) & car port complete the picture.

There's an outlook to wonderful Mt Ainslie from many of the upstairs windows, the private, leafy backyard and the quietness of the location all make it hard to believe that you are on the fringe of the capital city of Australia.
