The Snapshot
The outdoor space gives this home an extra dimension, pairing a broad, level lawn with a long covered alfresco that can be enjoyed across the seasons. There is ample room for children and pets to move freely, for gardeners to add their own stamp, or for future plans to take shape without compromising the sense of openness.
The Home
A home with solid bones, generous proportions and a backyard that gives you more room to live, 12 John Arthur Avenue brings together everyday comfort, practical space and a well-connected Thornton address.
Positioned on a level 623sqm block behind an established garden, this single-level brick residence feels immediately familiar and functional, with scope to enjoy as is or gradually make your own.
Inside, the floorplan unfolds through a broad central living zone, where a spacious lounge and adjoining dining area create clearly defined places to relax, gather and share meals. Large windows draw in natural light, while ceiling fans and new Daikin ducted air conditioning help keep the interiors comfortable year-round.
The kitchen sits at the practical heart of the home, offering a generous U-shaped layout with extensive built-in cabinetry, benchtops and plenty of preparation space. Quality appliances make it well-equipped for daily cooking, while a wide window frames a leafy view of the backyard.
Three well-proportioned bedrooms are grouped along the quieter side of the home, each with a built-in robe. The master is particularly generous, while the main bathroom includes a full-sized bath, shower, and a separate powder room, adding welcome practicality. The internal laundry also provides built-in storage and external access.
Outdoor living is one of the property's strongest assets. A long, covered alfresco runs across the rear of the home, creating a sheltered space for relaxed entertaining in every season. Beyond it, the expansive lawn offers ample extra space, bordered by established greenery and accompanied by a garden shed. There is also ample space to introduce a trampoline, vegetable beds or a more substantial entertaining zone.
Vehicle accommodation is equally useful, with side access leading to an oversized garage & carport. Configured for two tandem vehicles with additional storage space, it is ideal for cars, tools, bikes or weekend equipment.
12 John Arthur Avenue presents an appealing opportunity for first-home buyers, downsizers, renovators or investors seeking space, usability and long-term potential in an established neighbourhood.
