UNDER OFFER BY SIOBHAN MICALE - Peaceful by the Park: Timeless Family Home
On the Alfred Cove border with a park two doors down and walking distance to the river, this generous brick and iron home is perfectly located for family living. All on one level, on a spacious 779 sqm block with a north-facing alfresco, theatre room, study/home office, a flexible additional room for work or play, and a backyard with room for ball games or a pool, it's easy to configure in the way that works best for you. It's a leafy and quiet neighbourhood, but close to everything you need: shopping at the local supermarket or Westfield Booragoon, easy access to transport, and a stroll to Mel Maria and Booragoon primary schools.
Beyond a terraced front garden and a magnificent tree on the verge, this home opens to newly sanded and re-finished solid jarrah floors and freshly painted white interiors. A carpeted theatre room serves as a second living area, with expansive northern windows, and there is also a study/home office near the entry. The air-conditioned master suite overlooks the front garden, separate from the bedroom zone at the other side of the home. There, another four bedrooms, all have ceiling fans, built-in robes and brand-new blinds. The family bathroom is cleverly configured for kids of all ages, with a separate vanity room, separate toilet, and bathroom with vanity, shower and bath.
At the heart of the home is the open-plan white kitchen, with a big stainless steel range and walk-in pantry, all flowing to the living and dining space, opening north to the high-walled alfresco. The timber deck wraps around three sides of the home, and the backyard is a blank canvas with plenty of space and two sheds. There is fantastic potential here to create leafy garden zones, grow veggies in the sun, or add a pool if you wish. On the northern side, the exterior gate to the deck is a real bonus, leading down to an air-conditioned activity room, with its own sliding doors to the deck, which would be ideal as another home office, kids playroom or for a home business with its own separate access. In addition, an alcove behind the kitchen would be a great homework zone for easy supervision.
The earthy brick and iron exterior is simple and timeless; the interiors are spacious and flexible with the possibility to add your own touches, and the location is serene but central, by the park in the river precinct around Alfred Cove. This is an ideal opportunity to make a forever family home your own.
