Pretty as a picture and rich in charm, this beautifully renovated character home has been a place to grow, gather and celebrate, welcoming you from the moment you arrive at this sought-after, near-city address.
Set privately behind secure driveway and pedestrian gates, the home enjoys a prized northerly aspect, with gardens that wrap gently around it, established trees, layered greenery and considered landscaping drawing you through to the rear.
A rendered façade and double verandah with tessellated tiles introduce a gracious entry, where a wide central hallway, soaring ceilings, timber floors and decorative fretwork create an immediate sense of warmth and character.
The floorplan is both generous and adaptable, offering four substantial bedrooms with flexibility for formal living if desired. The front two rooms are bathed in northern light, overlooking the garden. One with built-in robes and a decorative fireplace, the other, a multi-purpose space featuring built-in cabinetry and bi-fold doors that allow it to open to an adjacent bedroom. Use this multi-functional front room as a study, bedroom, retreat or additional living space.
Bedroom three connects directly to the two-way family bathroom, presenting an appealing option for a main private primary suite with its own retreat, while the fourth bedroom, further down the hall, is filled with natural light and fitted with extensive built-in robes.
The main bathroom is a statement in both scale and style, with heritage tiling, a deep bath, separate shower and a substantial timber double vanity. A second bathroom at the rear services the pool and outdoor areas with ease.
At the heart of the home, the kitchen and living spaces are designed for everyday living and entertaining. The country-style Alby Turner kitchen is both classic and highly functional, appointed with stone benchtops, white shaker cabinetry, a custom extraction canopy and quality Miele appliances. A central space for casual meals, the kitchen connects effortlessly to the living and dining rooms and enjoys direct access to the side carport for practical day-to-day living.
The expansive open-plan living and dining domain opens out to the rear garden's verandah. A central gas heater in the living space is framed by bespoke timber shelving, ready to display books, artwork and family pieces-while high ceilings and multiple windows draw in natural light throughout the day to this open-plan space.
French doors lead to an inviting outdoor setting, where the verandah extends to create a generous alfresco entertaining space. The gardens are beautifully maintained, offering both shade and quiet corners to retreat, while the fully tiled, heated in-ground pool and spa provide a true focal point, complete with dual swim jets and a large movable umbrella for summer comfort.
A substantial garden shed doubles as a workshop or gym, with an infrared Clear-light, 2-person sauna included-rounding out a home that balances character, comfort and everyday enjoyment.
