Hiding behind the curve of a sloping driveway amongst a cache of soaring native trees, 12 Parkway Lane sits buzzing quietly with potential. Entering the compound of the property, we come across a large workshop, with space for machinery, vehicles or a potential hobby studio. An attached lean-to provides a sheltered area ideal for parking a caravan or a boat. A neighbouring brick and iron double garage sits perfectly primed at the end of the driveway to turn into at the end of a long day.
Entering the home underneath the wraparound verandah, we reach a welcoming hallway through which lie the living quarters with the corridor allowing entry to three bedrooms. All rooms are spacious with mirrored double wardrobes and plenty of natural lighting.
Serving all members of the home is a shared bathroom, decorated with timber and tile, boasting a bath/shower, sink vanity and plenty of storage. A toilet is located in a separate room.
Stepping down into the lower of the split levels of the home, we come across a vast living area with a sunken lounge room - the vaulted roof, exposed brick and abundance of wide windows offering strong bones for a tasteful interior designer.
The hub of the home is the open plan kitchen/meals/family space, a creatively formatted room glowing with the natural light seeping in from the French doors that lead to the alfresco decking. An electric stovetop, island bench, copious banks of storage cabinetry and plenty of bench space serve as brilliant starting points for your dream kitchen.
Stepping through the family room French doors is a timber-decked alfresco area that looks over the gorgeous bush oasis and plans of the swan escarpment. A large gazebo sits adjacent, elevated and shady to view the scenery in ultimate comfort. Down below is a concrete below ground swimming pool with a paved decking area surrounding, ready to be renovated and appreciated in the warm summer months.
