At first glance, its charming clinker brick façade sits effortlessly within the established streetscape. Look closer and a different story unfolds. Thoughtfully transformed by an owner with an eye for design, this residence honours its origins while embracing a more contemporary way of living. Natural materials, carefully chosen finishes and preserved character elements create an interior that feels layered, authentic and enduring.
Set on a 368sqm corner allotment, the home's broad street presence immediately sets it apart, with cottage-inspired gardens and a fence line that wraps around to a convenient side garage entry. Inside, natural hardwood floors create visual continuity throughout, while the original mantle in the living room and fireplace alcove within the kitchen provide subtle reminders of the home's history.
The kitchen and meals area reflects the same considered approach found throughout the home, bringing together Caesarstone benchtops, a 900mm Smeg oven, integrated Smeg dishwasher, Gessi tapware and a deep Abey sink. Beyond, a dedicated sunroom adds versatility for study use, there is also a laundry with an additional W/C adding further flexibility to the floorplan.
