In the fast-paced world that we live in, home should be a refuge – a place of comfort and relaxation, where family members can find their own space or get together for meals, entertainment and play. And if there’s no work left to be done, then spare time can be spent on leisure rather than home maintenance.
Welcome to 17 Rutherford Street, where everything is neat and tidy and there is no need for anyone to be a slave to renovations or cleaning – the next owner can simply move straight in and enjoy.
There’s room for all the family to relish everyday life as well as entertain guests at this attractive, modern home situated in the heart of popular Lower King. And when they gather, there’s a choice of places to do it.
Built of brick and tile, the home has accents of French blue in rendered panels at the front, giving it a stylish touch and setting it apart from run-of-the-mill modern houses.
At the heart is a spacious open living space comprising the family room, dining area and kitchen, with a wood fire strategically positioned to heat the entire home.
This area is augmented by a separate lounge at the front and a covered, paved L shaped patio running all the way across the back of the home and down one side, connecting to the carport.
With plenty of cabinetry, a pantry, gas cooktop, wall oven and space for a dishwasher, the kitchen is a sizeable and pleasant area for preparing family meals.
At the front is the master bedroom with en suite shower room and toilet, and a walk-in robe. Two of the other three bedrooms are doubles and one is a good-sized single – and all have built-in robes.
The second bathroom has a bath, shower and vanity, and the toilet is off the nearby laundry.
Everything is in tip-top condition and well presented, and the décor is clean and neutral. Timber-look vinyl flooring flows throughout the hallway and open living area, and the bedrooms and lounge are carpeted.
There’s internal access through the double carport directly to the kitchen, and a gate at the side of the property opens into the back yard for the trailer or caravan to be stored.
Also in the back yard are two sheds – a garden shed and a wood shed – and a rainwater tank under the eaves.
The 833 sqm block has good play space, and the property backs onto parkland.
For the little ones, the community kindy is a few doors away, and for bigger kids, schools are within easy reach, as are the supermarket, boat launching ramps and fishing spots.
