This Gentleman's Bungalow facing east onto Bedford Square has a homely ambience for one & all. Only four owners have cared for it since it was built in 1926.
The residence features high ornate ceilings, large separate formal dining room with a feature dome ceiling, north facing lounge room with open gas fire featuring a cedar wood fire surround, 3 double bedrooms two with builtins, modern bathroom with spa bath. The family kitchen has ample cupboards, granite-like bench tops and a large gas cooker with oven big enough to roast the Christmas turkey. The practical teak floating floor stands out under the natural light from a skylight. The rear family room extension provides an informal relaxing area with easy access to the side patio and rear garden through a sliding glass door.
The HWS is solar with off peak back up. There is a gas space heater in the family room and two reverse cycle air conditioning units, one in this room and a second in the main bedroom together with ceiling fans in each bedroom and the lounge. All ceilings are insulated with batts, the rear extension walls similarly insulated.
There is extensive clay brick paving, the garden has been well maintained and flows easily from the front to rear with lawns covering both areas. The property is surrounded by substantial fencing, the front being of original heritage design and content. The glory vines on pergolas on the N and W facing aspects provide summer protection. The corner property with a lane at rear only has only one neighbour, on the south side.
There is a double carport off Rochester Av. with an automated roller door. The large rear working shed situated at the rear has a dark room and is partially obscured by a free standing BBQ pavilion. There is a second carport off the shed and onto Rochester. The shed has a pit which could be excavated and converted to an ideal wine store.
There are nine fruit bearing trees and small vegetable garden, rain water tank and numerous garden tap points.
In all a fine classic residence in this ever popular garden suburb and only available as the vendors are retiring.
