This beautifully presented 1950s home has been lovingly cared for by the current owner for the past 23 years. Located in a beautiful part of Newstead, this home is spacious and filled with light. It has a secure, flat garden and is close to many schools, parklands, and cafés.
Arriving at the home you are greeted by a gorgeous front garden with established trees and shrubs. Lovely flowers, in a concrete planter box, border the stairs and lead you up to the front door. The 1950's charms are evident straight away and include the metal features at the entrance, expansive use of windows and an architectural butterfly roofline.

The kitchen is central to the house and includes an original 50's retro bench which pairs perfectly with other cupboards providing ample storage and preparation space. This room flows through to the delightful sunroom which gets loads of natural light and has views across to Mt. Barrow. There is a generous amount of inbuilt storage in this room, and it is the perfect space to enjoy a coffee, read a book or for children to play in the warmth.
