Calling all lovers of character homes!
And calling all renovators who'd love to further transform this exquisite bungalow!!
Perfectly located half way between the City and the Bay this superb 1920's bungalow with sprawling return verandah is a head-turner. Displaying charming street appeal behind a high rendered wall, the extended residence offers a clever blend of old and new and will delight many seeking a large character home.
Upon entering you'll be greeted with the traditional wide hallway and soaring ornate ceilings that flow throughout and continue to be surprised at what this fine old home 'with a twist' has to offer.
With a well planned internal layout, there is plenty of scope for keen renovators to use some vision and make some dramatic changes to add further value to this home. Currently set up as four double-size bedrooms plus huge living area at the rear, but new owner may wish to restore one bedroom into a formal living room, to utilise the cosy combustion heater.
We acknowledge that the two bathrooms do need makeovers but the exciting option is that one in particular lends itself to become an ideal ensuite conversion to the adjoining master bedroom. This would certainly add serious value to the home.
Walk into
* Authentic wide timber boards flow throughout the original home
* 4 double-sized bedrooms, all with built in furniture and generous robes. As mentioned, one bedroom could easily be converted to a second living area if desired.
* 2 bathrooms main with separate bath and shower (one could be the perfect ensuite conversion)
* Ducted evaporative cooling throughout
* Blackwood timber kitchen with dishwasher, breakfast bar, servery and feature garden window
* Separate dining room with timber French doors
* The main hub of the home is the huge fully tiled family room with built-in bar which overlooks the all weather pergola area with caf blinds. The sparkling salt chlorinated swimming pool is a great backdrop, offering the bonus of gas heating, for year round enjoyment
* Small lawn area for the kids play equipment and your four legged friends
* 2 tool sheds 1 for the pool supplies and equipment, the other for storage
* Large laundry/utility room and separate 2nd toilet
* Front garden is private and well sheltered behind the high modern rendered wall. A double driveway leading to double carport gives easy undercover access to the front door.
Situated in an up and coming suburb, where the local Ascot Primary School is only a few steps away. Convenient shopping is within two minutes at the local Park Holme Shopping Centre and bus and train to city or Westfield Marion is nearby.
Come with your vision and sketch pads to see what changes you'd make to turn this great home into something amazing!!!
