Offers over $799,000
Tucked away in a much sought-after, quiet pocket of Silkstone, this charming 1960s post-war cottage beautifully blends original character with thoughtful modern updates, generous outdoor living and plenty of potential for the future.
From the moment you step inside, the home's high ceilings and polished timber floorboards create an immediate sense of warmth and character. At the heart of the home is a spacious open-plan living, dining and kitchen area, complete with split-system air conditioning and an easy connection to the outdoor spaces.
The renovated kitchen offers plenty of functionality and storage, highlighted by a large walk-in pantry. From the living room, step directly onto the secure covered patio – a peaceful spot to enjoy your morning coffee or unwind at the end of the day.
Both bedrooms are generously sized with split-system air conditioning. An additional office/study provides excellent flexibility and could potentially become a third bedroom or be incorporated into a future master suite with an ensuite and walk-in robe.
The large laundry/mudroom continues the home's practical appeal, offering excellent storage, direct access to the outdoor entertaining area and a touch of vintage charm with the original double concrete laundry tub.
Outside is where the possibilities really open up. A covered entertaining area overlooks the expansive, flat backyard and established gardens, with plenty of room for children and pets to play. There's also a garden shed, generous side access and ample off-street parking. For renovators or growing families, the substantial backyard may also provide scope to extend the existing home, subject to council approval.
Adding even more versatility, the original single garage has been converted into a fantastic powered and plumbed space previously suited to a home business. Whether you envision a home office, teenager's retreat, hobby room, additional entertaining area or creative studio, the options are extensive.
