This 1,000sqm allotment has a lush, almost tropical rear yard aspect, and you will love the way the main living area basks in the warm northerly winter sun.
Behind the understated solid brick exterior with abundant potential, is a home with immense appeal and fantastic living space. Timber highlights and cabinetry are special features of the era.
24 Californian Crescent is a wonderful opportunity to move in, get a feeling for how this home lives, and down the track plan to take this home to another level. How exciting!
There are 3 bedrooms.
The main is a great size room filled with natural light. There is a wall of built-in robes, and an interesting feature is the vanity nook (with potential for an ensuite). Bedrooms 2 and 3 are cosy rooms and one has built-in robes. It would be possible to reverse the linen cupboard for another built-in robe.
The good size bathroom is in excellent condition and is very cool with its raised timber vanity! There is a separate toilet in the laundry area.
The kitchen is a Happy Days classic; a big room with long bench space highlighted by original bespoke timber cabinetry. There is a servery through to the formal dining room, a dishwasher, and pantry storage in the laundry area. A unique feature is the cafe style booth for everyday family dining.
The separate dining room is a great size, and has many potential uses. With split-system air-conditioning, it could be a second living area, or perhaps a 4th bedroom or a home office. A wall of concealed storage includes a stereo cabinet and built-in shelving.
Enter the main living area and what a fantastic space this is!
The sunken split-level design gives a real feeling of retreat. This feeling is enhanced by high ceilings with structural timber beams that float through a wall of glass. A natural blue-stone blade wall with an atrium extends to the outdoors, while the whole room is warmed by an amazing wall of timber cabinetry.
All this merges perfectly with the outdoors.
Through an age old Bougainvillea that adorns the eave line, a random-slate pathway leads to a private grassed area with a barbeque built into the impressive bluestone wall. This beautiful north facing outdoor area is very private, and is the ideal space to relax or entertain.
Your new home is complemented by a garage, storeroom, and workshop all under the main roof!
The gardens are a delight, with open lawn areas, and an established vegetable garden. You will be surprised by the feeling of privacy you get from the winter creek which is home to an array of established vegetation and greenery that shields you completely from neighbours.
But wait, there is more. And what a surprise!
Follow the garden steps down to an extensive paved area with a large outdoor open fireplace and a secret underground cellar. This is a genuine cellar, and a fantastic place to store your prized wine collection, and the room is also large enough for an intimate gathering of friends.
What a home and what a position! Fall in love with 24 Californian and make it yours!
