The timeless look of a character weatherboard home never goes out of style and one in such a sought after locale will further add to the attraction. With an abundance of street appeal, this double storey family residence will impress you from the time you walk through the landscaped gardens and into the inviting home. Offering generous accommodation, polished Tasmanian Oak floorboards and decorative cornices, it has a pleasing master bedroom with a well-appointed walk-in robe and a modern ensuite with floor to ceiling tiling, wall hung vanity and a walk-in shower. There are dual living zones downstairs; an expansive lounge/dining room with a gas log fireplace, eye catching wrought iron surround and attractive decorative mantle, plus a large open plan kitchen/meals/family zone offering the warmth of a Coonara wood heater at the rear of the home.
The kitchen is a modern delight with stone bench tops, high gloss panelled cabinets, glass splashbacks and high spec Miele appliances including an induction cooktop, pyrolytic oven, microwave combi oven, steam oven and a plate warmer. There are bi-fold doors from both the meals and family room that open out onto a large decked alfresco zone that features bistro blinds and overlooks a brick paved courtyard and a back garden with excellent screening to maintain privacy. The lower level is completed by an enormous laundry with an abundance of storage, large under-stair storage section and a convenient toilet.
