Presenting "The Cottage" - circa 1940's
If you love the cottage style then this is the property for you. The pretty picket fence, the inviting lich gate, the classic colour palette, and a garden to match - all combining to create some of the most wonderful street appeal in town. But don't be deceived, because inside the front door is a family-sized home with 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and a study that presents opportunities for a 5th bedroom or home business.
Featuring more than 50 hand-made leadlight windows, polished hardwood floors, and ornate plasterwork, this inviting home comprises a lounge/dining room with open fireplace, open-plan kitchen/meals/living zone - the timber kitchen with gas cooking, Asko dishwasher, and good work space, 4 comfortable bedrooms (master with spa ensuite), and a home office/5th bedroom with direct garage access that could provide an excellent work-at-home space.
An alfresco deck adjoins the main living zone, and flows effortlessly onto the family-friendly rear lawn that is securely fenced for children and pets. There are uninterrupted views from the living room, the deck, and the garden, which create an even greater sense of space.
Additional features include ducted heating, evaporative cooling, split system air conditioner, security alarm, timber-lined laundry, remote double garage, and additional off-street parking.
With an abundance of cottage appeal in a family-sized home, you're fabulously located for easy access to schools, Lower Plenty shops, bus, and the city commute. Unique, practical, and beautiful - inspection will impress.
