Taking full advantage of a corner position in this popular near city suburb, this solid freestone fronted home has an impressive street facade. A sweeping manicured lawn set with clipped and mature trees provides the perfect foreground for the home which is set across the angle of the block. Barley twist columns add interest to the generous front veranda, while a driveway leading to the double garage to one side of the home is marked by oversize carriage lights. Smaller versions of these lights flank the gate to the courtyard at the other side of the home.
Outside and in, the home has been meticulously and lovingly maintained, but is now ready for a facelift and perhaps an extension to maximise its potential. The interior is light and bright throughout with high ceilings featuring art deco decoration. The well proportioned lounge and adjoining dining room enjoy an open garden outlook while the kitchen opens to a sheltered courtyard through French doors. This room has ample cupboard and bench space as well as a built in breakfast bench and ceiling fan for summer cool. A heater fitted in the fireplace and split system airconditioner in the dining area add comfort to this area.
The main bedroom has elegantly crafted built in wardrobes, drawers and dressing table on two walls and an air conditioning unit. The second bedroom is a good size and has a ceiling fan. The bathroom is centrally located in the house with a separate toilet in the laundry.
The back garden is just as neatly manicured as the front, with plenty of lawn area for children to play. The garage has double roller doors and convenient entry into the back garden.
This property is in a lovely quiet area, offers lots of character and so represents a great buying opportunity for those wishing to create a home with their own stamp.
