Listing description

About this property

The home offers over 110 sq.m. of living space, originally with 3 bedrooms; one cleverly opened to create a rumpus. Currently a 2 bedroom home, with flexibility to re-convert the original 3rd bedroom space back, by installing a stud wall. The residence is full of natural light, with great entertaining spaces and is in a connected and convenient location. Neat hedging and a decorative screen shelter the home and garden, and a large front deck adds to the appeal. A paved sitting area offers a sunny spot in the private garden. Bright open plan living areas, which flow onto entertaining space, are a highlight in this inviting home, situated in a convenient location, only a short walk to The Knox cafe and shops, Majura and Rosary Primary Schools, the new Windeyer Street playground, Dickson College, The Australian Catholic University, and a light rail stop! Brand new carpet and fresh white decor add to the welcoming feel in the entry and light filled lounge, which maximises the north-east aspect with two sets of elegant French doors onto the front deck. The original brick fireplace houses a cosy slow combustion stove, the warmth from the brickwork radiating through the spacious open plan living area, and sunlight pours in over the cooler months. Views to Mt. Majura are enjoyed from the lounge and front deck. The kitchen offers an electric stove, double sink and a view over the rear garden. From the dining area French doors open to the peaceful, paved entertaining area, covered by a new pergola. The flow-through layout of living areas to outdoor space lends itself to entertaining. The new carpet extends from the entry through all bedrooms, including the third space, where one wall has been removed to create a rumpus, though this could be easily reversed. The spacious master offers a built-in storage nook and the second bedroom is comfortable. The bathroom includes a bath with a shower and a separate w/c. Paved entertaining overlooks the safely enclosed rear garden featuring grassy playspace and a fenced area with a shade tree and roses along one side. There is a garage and carport, which includes a storage area, and a fruitful grape vine at the side of the house. Freshly presented and full of light, this home has strong appeal, while offering scope for further updating. UV: $ 754,000 Rates: $ 4,464.00 (approx.)
