I'm a bit biased about Clement Street..... I grew up on it! It's a lovely street with wonderful neighbours and I've known the owners here for many years. I also know how much this charming family home has been cared for so when I say it's in excellent condition...I mean it!
Very rarely do you see a home with this much character and accommodation come on the market in this sought after pocket of Plympton Park for the simple reason that no one wants to leave!
Offering stunning street appeal with a meticulously maintained front garden including ornamental citrus trees, water wise native shrubs & plants and a silver streak yucca standing tall as the gardens feature centrepiece.
Instantly capturing your attention as you enter the wide hallway, the high ceilings, skirting boards, character picture rails, original stained glass front door and polished Baltic floorboards will give you the feeling that "this is the one".
To your right, the master bedroom is a great size with polished boards, ensuite, ceiling fan and exposed brick fireplace with mantle piece. Bedrooms 2 & 3 both have fireplaces and are double in size, bedroom 2 includes built in robes and bedroom 3 (currently set up as a formal lounge area) has a calming feature wall and auto skylight.
The formal dining room oozes character and is warmed by natural sunlight through its unique verlux style raked skylight. The floorboards are painted white adding a distressed antique feel and are complimented by stained timber & glass double sliding doors to the main living area. The 5th bedroom or study is also accessed from here, currently used as a quiet home office with garden views.
To service your family and guests, the updated kitchen has a lovely open plan feel, it includes timber cabinetry, loads of bench space, dishwasher, 5 burner gas cook top and a roomy walk in pantry. It also has a breakfast bar which makes a great spot to pull up a stool with a glass of wine and keep the conversation flowing while the master chef of the house cooks up a storm.
Step down to the slate tiled main living room and be wowed whichever way you look. There's loads of room for the whole family to spend quality time and maybe take in a movie and through floor to ceiling hardwood windows take in picturesque views of the landscaped lawn and gardens. A warm, charming room which acts as the central hub of the home, I'm sure you'll spend plenty of time here.
Through sliding doors, outside is just lovely, with ferns and palms surrounding a covered courtyard with a surprise staircase taking you up to the 4th bedroom cleverly built over the carport which is the best teenage retreat I've seen for ages. It offers independence to the modern teenager or will work as a great studio for photographers, artists or any other hobby you've always wanted to start. It also has access to attic storage for all that extra stuff we all seem to accumulate.
With daylight savings upon us you'll love eating outdoors under the vine covered pergola with room for your outdoor setting and the BBQ. Entertain family and friends in style; while the kids and dogs play on the lawn and wear themselves out, the adults can enjoy a steak and a beer on a warm summer's night.
These holidays you'll be the envy of all your friends (and I'm sure you'll make a few new ones), because when the mercury reaches 40 this summer you'll be cool as a cucumber in your resort style solar heated swimming pool. Surrounded by a tropical garden of assorted palm trees you can relax on your day bed under the poolside pitched roof pergola entertaining area.
