Overview

Character, Charm & Easy Living In Chilwell Cafe Precinct

This absolutely charming single-fronted Federation home could not be more perfectly located to offer you a wonderful lifestyle location in the heart of this coveted pocket of Newtown. Encapsulating the style and character this area is so well known for, this is the quintessential Chilwell abode, offering low-maintenance living just minutes walk from all the delights and conveniences of Pakington Street. On entry, the character of the home is immediately on display with high ceilings, timber floorboards and timber lining boards adorning the walls of the long hallway. Three generous bedrooms, two with built in robes and the third with feature mantle and fireplace are situated at the front of the home. A spacious central bathroom including claw-foot bath and lining boards continues the character theme of the home. Moving through to the open plan kitchen, dining and living room, the north facing aspect of the room creates a feeling space and light. The well-equipped kitchen includes stainless steel appliances and connects well to the dining and living which opens out to a rear undercover deck and ample sized sun drenched courtyard. Perfectly proportioned, the backyard remains low maintenance whilst being well sized for play, pets or entertaining. A single remote lockup garage offers additional space for storage and direct entry into the home providing security and convenience.
