Just a mere stroll from the foothills of Mount Majura!
Resting within a treed and bushy native garden, this mid-century modern, cream brick home, sits elegantly within the landscape. Clean lines, large picture windows and a classic modernist appeal makes for a unique and delightful frontage. The large corner block is mostly open to the street, yet the home feels private thanks to the beautifully planted, sprawling native array.
Within there is a great sense of space and abundant light, as honeyed floorboards flow underfoot with the airy living and dining arena flowing directly to the kitchen. The original brick hearth and gas heater, sits centrally within the social arena, making for a wonderful focal and gathering spot on cold winter nights. There is the feeling of dwelling within nature, sunbathing in warming light, as corner casement windows bring the outside in. Windows can be thrown open in summer, welcoming cross breezes straight off the flowering grevilleas and eucalypts.
Banks of dove grey cabinetry take care of storage within the large kitchen, and to one side there is a well-hidden European laundry. A picture window allows you to tree gaze while you do the washing up and there is direct access to the private, undulating back yard.
A hallway cleverly divides the private wing from the living areas. Three sunny bedrooms take-in northerly light via handsome timber windows that frame painterly scenes of ghost gums. The master bedroom has a built-in-robe and ensuite bathroom. Both ensuite and family bathroom are authentically original, adaptable to sensitive updates while vintage mosaic floors trigger joy.
A cement driveway ushers to both single garage and double carport, so there is plenty of off-street parking. Rows of crisp white windows emphasis the long horizontal form and we love the long shady front veranda, the vintage veranda posts, set with original house numbers and the bevelled glass that frames the front door.
Mackenzie is the kind of idyllic street where everybody knows their neighbours and kids can ride their bikes within the connecting cul-de-sac or reserve across the road. The street slowly climbs and turns along the base of Mt Majura, with number 94 sitting at the apex, ideally placed within an elevated leafy enclave, moments from the Dickson and Braddon precincts and the CBD.
Hackett is a private haven with no through roads, protecting it from the hustle and bustle of the surrounding city. Known for its leafy streets, community values and direct access to green spaces and bush reserve it is tightly held. Take a stroll down to the local shops where you can pick up your groceries from the IGA or have a bit to eat at either 3rd Space or Siam Twist. You will find yourself within close proximity of public transport and a variety of schools, whilst a short drive will take you into the CBD.
