Built circa 1926, this glorious sandstone fronted bungalow offers an exciting juxtaposition of present-day conveniences with all the charm and character of yesteryear. Constructed to the celebrated standards of its day with large rooms and lofty ceilings, this 3 - 4 bedrooms home (plus study) has been meticulously renovated, extended and decorated.
Upon stepping inside you are immediately greeted with sweeping oak-coloured Karndean long boards, welcoming you into the home and a light and bright ambience. The bedrooms to the front of the home are all spacious, with the second and third featuring built-in robes while the master is graced by a beautiful open fireplace with provisions to convert to gas heating. All bedroom windows to the main residence feature high-quality plantation shutters, and the stout window frames that characterise these home plus the picture rails have been retained in all bedrooms.
The formal lounge, which like the master bedroom, boasts a beautiful open fireplace with this one being converted to gas heating. Maintaining the lofty ceilings a clever extension replaces the original lean-to and adds over 50 square metres to the original footprint of the home. While an expertly designed and finished bathroom comes complete with a full-length bathtub, floor to ceiling tiles, and a wall hung dual vessel vanity. Large format floor tiles complement the luxe feel here..
A central study, not large but definitely functional, is tucked unobtrusively towards the beginning of the extension while the second living area / dine provides ample room for the family to relax and entertain. A gas wall heater and reverse cycle split system wall unit in this space will keep you comfortable all year round. One of the many highlights of this home and one of its largest boasting feature is the massive stone bench kitchen. There is an abundance of cupboard space, built in wall oven and microwave, dishwasher, induction cooktop, and a central island. You will be proud when guests are over and discern this space.
Nestled in the northeastern corner of the home is the welcome addition of a studio, currently utilised as a 4th bedroom and complete with its own ensuite. House interstate guests here, your older teenager, or perhaps convert to an art room, external office space; the versatility of this space is almost endless.
