29 Blackmore Avenue, Leongatha, Vic 3953

When "Funky Town" was playing on the radio back in the seventies, they were building these really cool houses that have now made a comeback, and now everybody wants one! The strong colours and boxy look are faithful to the style in this stunning, concrete rendered, solid brick example, in a quiet, established Leongatha street thats much closer to the shops than any of the newer zones.
Park the car under cover and walk directly to the front door. Inside, the separate entry introduces the main level of the house. Here, rich, earthy paint tones mix with timber architraves and the result is striking. Its an easy living home, with living areas oriented towards a north-east facing balcony that overlooks a dazzling inground pool, giving the home a relaxed, resort-like feel. The main living room has a wall of glass to bring in the view, a large wood fired heater on a raised brick surround. Complementing the wood heater for climate control, are two split system air conditioners upstairs, and gas ducted heating is also included.
Recent improvements provide modern fixtures and fittings in the kitchen and bathroom. Dishwasher and stainless steel wall oven and hot plates, pantry, island bench and oodles of cupboards make it a very workable and roomy kitchen. New toilets and vanities in the bathroom and ensuite have them feeling like new. A cleverly positioned study, close to the main action of the house, is already fitted with bench tops with room enough for two computers and peripherals. Three upstairs bedrooms all have robes, and the main enjoys direct access to the pool balcony: swing open the door at night to enjoy the gorgeous summer breezes.
A central stairway leads to a lower level room which has plenty of scope fourth bedroom/living; home gym or office; rumpus. It has a long, extra big laundry running off it so could even convert to a third bathroom downstairs if required. This room opens straight onto to the pool zone wit extensive brick paving, grassed areas, and an undercover area too. Beyond the pool zone, there is a big water tank for pool top-ups and garden watering, and a decent garden shed.
If you are not into the blandness of many of the newer homes, this one is for you appeal, location, space, and pool a value package that is not to be passed over.
