You cannot over-estimate the pleasure an agent gets from walking in to an attractive, well presented home. It compensates for some of the less attractive aspects of our industry.

Welcome to Partridge Street.

Even though vacant, this 4 bedroom colonial home still retains a feeling of warmth not commonly found in unoccupied homes. From the 3/4 front verandah, passing the colonial barred timber windows, the front door with colourful lead-light side windows gives access to the formal entry and step-down lounge with eyecatching feature brick fireplace and chimney breast and elegant wall frieze which carries through from the entry to the dining room.

The timber kitchen continues the colonial theme as does the external door from the family room to the substantial paved and pergola-covered outdoor area. The master bedroom and ensuite are isolated from the 3 secondary bedrooms.

Outside, the 'Presentation Plus' theme carries on. Low maintenance grounds front and back, computerised irrigation system, shrubs and trees planted with a view to giving privacy and a brick storage shed. EER 2.5

Both state and church primary schools are within easy walking distance, as is public transport, with the Gowrie shops, Erindale and even the Hyperdome only a few minutes by car.

Fadden is a suburb that is high on many people's wish lists, so if you're one of those people and are looking for an extra-comfortable home at a price that is not on a par with the GDP of a small country, take the time to come and have a look through this one.
