Or, to put it without the alliteration: you are looking at a family home that is beautifully refreshed to be move-in ready, on a completely flat block promising so much opportunity for future upgrades or additions - and yes, it is literally 100m up the road from Akuna Park!
Second time ever to market since its construction in the 1960s and very well maintained by its owners of almost twelve years, this home asks nothing of you other than to unpack your bags on settlement day. A fresh coat of paint inside and out elevates the already light and bright feeling of the home (courtesy of plenty of large windows throughout) while the original, narrow-board hardwood floors balance it with a sense of warmth and classic charm. And that flat block I mentioned is not only comprehensively landscaped with loads of fenced lawn for the kids at the back but ALSO offers the perfect opportunity to add value by extending the home or putting in a pool!
Meanwhile the lifestyle offered by the home's location is simply unmatched and the main reason why homes in this part of Kenmore are so highly sought after. With the Akuna Street Parklands only a minute's walk down the road promising a dog off-leash area, sports ovals and bike paths to the city, and the pinnacle of cosmopolitan living in shops, cafes, restaurants, amenities, medical centre and public transport within five to ten minutes on foot in the other direction, you truly have the best of both worlds right at your fingertips!
