True to its 1918 heritage, and painted in colours respectful of the era, this 2 bedroom Californian classic combines many original characteristics with the comforts of today.
Updated over the years with a sympathetic extension and contemporary modifications, the traditional floor-plan centres around an entrance hallway highlighted by ornate ceiling roses, brass pendant lights and delicate leadlight.
Offering two spacious & peaceful bedrooms - the master with expansive BIRs and a pretty bay window. A centrally located bathroom features heritage colours, brass fittings and time-honoured frieze tiles.
With stone benches, Miele cooktop & dishwasher, the updated kitchen is fitted with Blackwood cabinetry and leadlight accents, while an open fire provides the focal point for the adjacent meals area. Traditional floorboards flow through to the welcoming, sunlit living & dining area filled with warmth & light.
An adaptable study area, hide-away laundry and separate powder room complete the interior of the single-storey home.
Outside is a surprisingly large and perfectly private courtyard with tranquil water feature and flourishing citrus trees.
Extras include extensive attic storage with drop-down ladder access, heating/cooling, instant hot water, drip watering system & storage shed. The home has also been re-stumped and re-wired.
A beautifully presented period home in a wonderfully convenient location only metres from station and shops - your chance to own a piece of Cheltenham's history.
