Renovations to this inviting home have retained its appealing 1970s features, integrating them with modern appointments to present a comfortable family abode with a choice of indoor and outdoor living spaces.
From the exterior, feature brick panels and timber window frames give an indication of the character to be found inside, where high ceilings and big windows create a light and airy feel.
The solid brick and tile home occupies a block of 622sqm in a convenient location with easy access to schools, a major shopping centre and town. This enhances its appeal to all ages, making it attractive to owner-occupiers as well as investors recognising the potential for excellent investment returns.
An open-plan living space is the main focus. On one side are the family room and lounge, with air conditioning for year-round temperature comfort and a centrally positioned Jarrahdale wood fire for toasty winters.
On the other side is the dining area and then the ivory kitchen, modernised a year ago and sporting all new appliances – a dishwasher, gas cooktop and underbench oven – and a corner pantry and breakfast bar.
French doors open onto a big, sheltered and paved rear patio with bench seating, sure to be a favourite spot for barbecues and parties. Another outdoor living option is an enclosed, paved courtyard at the front, reached through French doors from the family room.
All three bedrooms are carpeted and two have built-in robes. The main bedroom is king sized and the other two are doubles, sharing the bathroom with a bath, walk-in shower and vanity, and the separate toilet.
As part of the renovations, attractive hybrid timber flooring was installed throughout the main living spaces and hallway, ceiling fans were fitted in the master bedroom and lounge, and lighting was upgraded.
A lawn in the enclosed back yard is perfect for children and pets to play on, and there’s a garden shed as well as a carport at the side with access to the rear for stowing the trailer.
Priced to be attainable by a wide scope of buyers, this property has amenities to please those aspiring to enter the market as well as downsizers, and landlords looking for a place with definite tenant appeal.
