On the corner of Dendy Street and only one block from the beach is this 1930's home set in pretty north-facing gardens, with deck for alfresco entertaining, cubby house, and play area for children.
Well maintained, and still proudly flaunting a number of period features inside, this comfortable residence has intercom entry and a lovely large sunny living room (split-system A/C, space heater) with rose marble-surrounded open fireplace, picture rails, high strapped ceiling and touches of fretwork. There's nothing old fashioned about the huge kitchen! What a surprise it is with its long island bench (stone benchtop) and plenty of storage space. This is genuinely a chef's kitchen - although you don't have to be a chef to enjoy working here in such well designed and edgy surroundings.
Two of the 3 bedrooms have ceiling fans and all have built-in wardrobes. A light-filled study at the rear of the house has built-in cupboards.The bathroom has been updated and there's a 2nd toilet off the laundry.
At the rear of the house is another attractive garden - paved, planted and with a trickling water feature, plus a workshop and a rainwater tank.
Off-street parking plus a carport cater for at least 3 vehicles. A sunny studio (with clear roof) is at the rear of the carport.
As for the location - opposite St Joan of Arc Primary School - in strolling distance of everything. Be quick - priced to sell immediately!!
