It's incredible what a well-considered renovation can achieve and the transformation of this 1961 single level dwelling from a sweet but dated home into a modern, stylish abode with every creature comfort - is a benchmark example.
The new-look 12 Mill Street has had its brick façade overlaid with a modern render finish, the front garden landscaped, and the driveway attractively paved. The internal renovations were also extensive but largely cosmetic, with the original layout of an adjoining lounge and dining area, spacious kitchen, 3 beds, a family bathroom, a laundry and handy second WC - unchanged.
Now, there's a calming balance between the rich, treacle-tones of timber flooring and freshly white-washed walls/ceilings framing light-infusing picture windows fitted with streamlined roller blinds. You get a sense of history, but it's all wrapped up in gorgeous new fixtures, finishes and fittings.
The kitchen, bathroom and laundry have been completely remodelled - the former with new cabinetry and benchtops, and a full suite of quality mod cons. The bathroom is tiled from floor-to-ceiling, with matte black tapware, a storage niche in the glass-enclosed rain shower and a chic oval basin atop its 'timber' finished floating vanity. In the laundry, custom joinery now seamlessly integrates the washing machine, trough and storage.
Out back, there's lawn for the kids to tumble about on, a cosy firepit area, and a shady verandah off the house to host alfresco gatherings. It's a sweet set-up, but there is scope for a potential future house extension, upgrading outdoor entertaining facilities, or adding a pool (STCC).
Here in Seaton, just a 10-minute drive to the sea, any investment is a smart one. This address is particularly attractive, being walking distance to top community leisure facilities, buses to get all over town, popular state schools & Westside Findon (Woolies).
