Still sporting some of its retro 60's aesthetic that only adds to the sweet appeal of these quickly disappearing character homes so hard to get your hands on, this beautifully presented Basket Range charmer captures a light-spilling base that's picture-perfect as is, while clinching incredible size and scope for long-term potential.
Right from its leafy frontage and stone façade, light-spilling and soft-carpeted lounge that turns to parquetry floors in the dining where an open and airy mid-century kitchen will inspire culinary cooking with good company, to the light and lofty bedrooms all with hardwood floors - there's a robust beauty to this solid brick footprint.
But it's a step outside that really reveals what 9 Almond Avenue has to offer. With a stunning wisteria covered pergola, sun-dappled and sandstone paved alfresco, and a sweeping backyard of lush kid and pet-friendly lawns, feature trees and bespoke veggie garden… the breathtaking scope of this 780sqm parcel comes into full vision.
Whether you're a family after quintessential size and space, and a home you can update and extend when the time is right, or you've got your eye on just the right address in the sought-after East to build the designer home of your dreams (STCC), and where proximity to schools, family-friendly parks and playgrounds, bustling shopping hubs and delicious specialty stores are all at arm's reach for an unrivalled lifestyle only this pocket can bring, then you'll find all boxes ticked and some!
Cosy, comfortable and lovingly maintained, the verdant Almond Reserve two doors down, and a stone's throw to eastside favourites like Gelato Bello, Pasta Deli, Brassco's Pizzeria and a long-list of other cafés and eateries - here in Firle, the continental-leaning Newton Central or the iconic Parade Norwood - planting your feet in this prime address promises the absolute brightest of futures.
