Occupying a secluded cul-de-sac location as well as a commanding street-front position that benefits from the most pleasant of north-facing aspects, this impressively-updated 3 bedroom 1 bathroom character home effortlessly blends timeless charm with a sense of contemporary sophistication, standing as a testament to the art of preservation in the most convenient of settings, surprisingly close to where all of the action is.
Prepare to be transported to a bygone era, where the likes of soaring high ceilings, solid wooden Jarrah floorboards, original doors and handles, extra-wide cornices, decorative ceiling roses, tall feature skirting boards, picture rails and a series of intricate art-deco-style finishes are commonplace throughout and will warm your heart upon first glance. A gorgeous French door reveals a welcoming front lounge room off the entry, complete with its own open fireplace, a split-system air-conditioning unit for climate control and a gas bayonet to help combat the winter chill.
Stunning sash windows grace a massive front master bedroom, along with standalone wardrobe and a terrific northern outlook to wake up to. The large second bedroom boasts queen-sized proportions, whilst the separate practical bathroom is brilliant in its simplicity and plays host to a bathtub, showerhead and powder vanity.
The central kitchen leaves more than enough room for either a casual-meals area or breakfast bar in the middle of the room, complementing a pantry, extra storage space and a new standalone DeLonghi 900mm-wide five-burner gas cooktop and oven. A tranquil dining room at the back of the house separates the versatile third bedroom – or study – from a large laundry with a stainless-steel wash trough, storage and a separate toilet.
At the rear and off the dining space lies a sunken and private backyard with fresh new lawn and an intimate covered patio for outdoor entertaining. How blissful.
