40 Railway Terrace

There are homes you inspect and forget. Then there are homes that make you smile the moment you arrive and this is emphatically one of the latter. Presenting characterful waterfall-fronted post-war austerity classic, set on a commanding 700m² corner allotment in one of the inner suburbs' most tightly held pockets. With its instantly recognisable period charm, generous proportions and a series of thoughtful improvements that have kept pace with the evolving needs of the modern family, this is a home that has been lived in, loved and genuinely cared for over many decades and it shows in every room. Original Character, Enduring Appeal Step inside and the hallmarks of the era greet you warmly: high ceilings that lend every room a sense of size and space beyond what the tape measure will tell you with generously proportioned bedrooms that recall when a bedroom was actually a childhood sanctuary and a traditional allotment that offers the kind of space that is rarely built upon anymore. These are the qualities that make mid-century homes so enduringly sought after, and this one delivers them in abundance. Three generous main bedrooms provide comfortable accommodation for the whole family, while a versatile fourth room adapts effortlessly to whatever the household requires a study for the professional working from home, a sunroom bathed in natural light, or a fourth bedroom for the growing family that needs every square metre. Evolved for the Way You Live Today Recognising that great bones deserve a great life, the home has been thoughtfully extended and improved over the years to deliver the spaces that contemporary families actually need. An expansive family room anchors the side of the home and opens to a relaxed casual meals and living area adjacent the modern kitchen the kind of effortlessly connected, light-filled space where the family gravitates without being asked. Whether it's homework at the kitchen bench, weekend meals that spill from the dining table to the living area, or a quiet evening in the family room while the younger ones do their own thing, this home accommodates the rhythms of real family life with ease. Practicality at Every Turn On a corner allotment, convenience comes naturally. Street frontage to Railway Terrace provides kerb-side parking and a porte-cochère for covered arrival, while rear lane access to the garage ensures the practical needs of a busy household are handled without fuss. A Location That Delivers Everything Set minutes from the city and the bay, and moments from schools, cafés, shops and transport, this is inner suburban living at its most genuinely accessible. The neighbourhood is tightly held for good reason once people arrive, they tend to stay and opportunities to secure a corner allotment of this scale and character in this location are as rare as they are brief. With up to four bedrooms, three distinct living areas and a presence on the street that turns heads, this is a home for families who refuse to compromise. Inspect and prepare to fall in love. **The vendor statement along with all searches pertaining to the property will be on display at our office for 3 days consecutive days prior to auction and at the site of auction for 30 minutes before the auction** **DISCLAIMER*** Although the Agent has endeavoured to ensure the accuracy of the information contained within the marketing material we remind prospective purchasers to carry out their own due diligence and to not rely upon the information in this description.
