This two-story solid brick residence is the place to call home. Ideally located in a wide tree-lined street, it was purchased by the current owners over 30 years ago, and has been extensively renovated and improved, enabling it to comfortably accommodate a family.
As you enter the home, the large front room to your left has a beautiful bay window with original leadlighting and an open fireplace. Currently used as a home office/study, it can and has been used as an amply sized bedroom. Adjacent is a delightful sitting room with original pressed metal ceiling and charming gas fired open fireplace.
Off the hallway you will find another bedroom with built in wardrobe and storage above. Further along the hallway is a sophisticated central bathroom, complete with an impressive freestanding bath and large separate shower. Laundry facilities are cleverly located behind a pair of full-length double fold doors with generous storage above.
The large open plan kitchen/family/dining area with cedar lined cathedral ceiling has full width glass doors opening to a private landscaped rear yard complete with wooden decking, a ?living green wall? and a sunny northerly aspect.
Upstairs you will find two further bedrooms. The first has front facing leadlight windows, and a wall-length built in wardrobe. The rear bedroom has highlight windows that take full advantage of the northerly sun. A modern second bathroom with shower is conveniently located between the bedrooms.
Features of the house are numerous and include: timber and polished (and heated) concrete floors, heating/cooling on the ground floor and evaporative cooling upstairs, a tiled front verandah with fretwork, and tuck-pointing.
Over the lifetime of your family you will find childcare centres, parks and playgrounds, the local primary school and a choice of private schools, within close reach. If you or the kids are sports minded, you will enjoy the nearby tennis courts, football oval, bowling club and golf course. Elwood Beach and its foreshore are nearby - enjoy swimming, walking and cycling, or join the angling and sailing clubs. Local shopping strips Tennyson Street and Ormond Road are a short stroll away and will meet all your requirements. Access to public transport is via train, tram or bus, all within easy walking distance. Move straight in and enjoy the house and the neighbourhood, with all both have to offer.
