Nestled among glorious gardens, this character-filled home is being offered for sale for the first time. Retaining much of its original charm, it provides flexible accommodation to suit a variety of family needs.
The light-filled living room enjoys front balcony access, while an adjoining petite dining area (or music room) offers versatility. At the heart of the home, the kitchen offers generous storage, including a pantry, and is equipped with a Westinghouse electric wall oven, Fisher & Paykel four-burner electric cooktop and Hitachi refrigerator.
A meals/family area adjacent to the kitchen flows seamlessly to the rear patio, creating a natural extension of the living space. The home includes three bedrooms, with a segregated master bedroom positioned at the rear. The second bathroom is conveniently located next to the master, with sliding glass doors opening to the patio and garden. A spacious family room/study or nursery/playroom sits alongside the master bedroom, offering additional flexibility. The second bedroom features two sets of built-in wardrobes, while the main bathroom and separate toilet are positioned near bedrooms two and three for easy access.
The beautifully maintained rear garden is a true highlight, featuring a vibrant array of crepe myrtles, camellias, azaleas and lavender with an easy-care native garden enhancing the front. The rear terrace is perfect for alfresco dining or unwinding with a glass of wine while children play in the garden.
Additional features include ducted gas heating, a gas heater, a reverse cycle air conditioner, a single carport and a garden shed discreetly tucked away in the service area.
