Standing proudly amongst other similar character homes is this solid, character, brick and sandstone villa. The home is in good condition as it is. It has been previously upgraded and is quite presentable as it stands. Perfect to rent out now while you plan your ideal renovation to convert into a great family home, or simply move in and enjoy the sense of space that villas from this era have to offer.
Red brick quoin work hides beneath a painted facade, with leadlight windows surrounding the front door, providing an impressive entrance. Polished timber floors and high skirting boards flow throughout the main body of the home highlighted by a long passage with a feature arch.
There are 5 main rooms with polished timber floors plus a kitchen, bathroom, laundry and lobby in a 3 bedroom design. There is a separate dining room which could be used as a fourth bedroom. Bedrooms 1 & 2 offer built-in robes with bedroom 3 being of good proportion. 3.5m ceilings, sash windows and original 4 panel doors all contribute to its authenticity. A generous lounge also offers the original picture rails.
The amenities are functional with a tidy kitchen offering modern cabinetry with double sink and an upgraded stove. The bathroom is bright and pleasant with crisp tiles, shower, vanity and dual mirrors. There is a separate W/C and a lean-to laundry provides a double sink and plenty of storage area.
The home also boasts extensive shedding. A besser brick garage / workshop is perfect for the car enthusiast, with a secure roller door and adjacent carport. A studio / workshop adds a further dimension to the shedding allowing for extra workshop space or a great spot for a man cave. Several small storage sheds at the rear complete the package.
The rear of the property adjoins a public park offering the opportunity to add a gate with direct access.
