Something Special!
SOMETHING SPECIAL!
This 1945-built, renovated home is situated on the corner of Halifax and Albany Highway. It has a typical layout and aura of its era, complete with shiny jarrah floors, high ceilings, gorgeous lead glass doors, an old-style fireplace, a sleep-out, sunroom, and, of course, the expected lemon tree in the backyard.
The two most important parts of the home have been renovated – the kitchen and bathroom. Enter off Halifax Street and park in front of the concrete and powered double garage. One side is remote, while the other side is manual. The spacious workshop/man shed can be accessed through the garages, but there’s also a convenient side entrance from the backyard. Apparently, this area was used as a dog grooming parlour, so air-conditioning and a trough with hot and cold water installed.
The 645m2 block is fully fenced, making it child- and pet-friendly.
A large under-roof patio greets you at the back entrance to the home. Enter through sliding doors into a typical back extension, where you will find the laundry area with a wash trough to the left just before the separate toilet. The modern bathroom with its character window, basin, and large shower is just before the entry to the kitchen, while a sleepout or bedroom 4 is on the right—ideal for teenagers, a studio/art room, or the odd guest.
The kitchen is charming, with its fresh blue and white theme contrasting perfectly with the shiny jarrah floors. There is plenty of cupboard and bench space, including a pantry and seating for three at the counter. A free-standing Eur Led stove and hob fit perfectly into the old alcove.
A door separates the kitchen from the rest of the home. The corridor is carpeted with jarrah floors underneath. To the left is the lounge area and lead glass doors leading out to a lovely sunroom. To the right is bedroom 3, straight ahead is bedroom 2, while the main bedroom is down the corridor to the left—also opening out to the sunroom with a gorgeous set of lead glass doors.
The lounge's main focus is the old fireplace—now blocked off—while a modern fireplace was installed in the corner of the room. There’s also a large ceiling fan to spread the heat throughout the home and modern air conditioning for ease of use.
Gorgeous lead glass doors lead to the enclosed front patio/sunroom. In the mornings, the sun pours into this room, and at night, you can enjoy a lovely outlook over Albany’s twinkling lights.
This home needs to be viewed to appreciate the ambience, as words and pictures don’t do it justice – there’s truly something special about it. This property will attract first-home buyers, singles, couples, families, and of course, investors. A fantastic tenant is in place until 14 October 2024 – and would love to stay, so it’s all lined up for you if you're an investor.
Qualified buyers only – cash or pre-approved finance, are invited to book private viewings. No home opens.
