**OFFERS CLOSE 4pm on Thursday Oct 1st** (Seller reserves the right to accept an offer prior) Property is being sold As Is Register for information and offer process - Jon Williams on 0412 028 555 1964 was the year The Beatles went to number one with 'Can't Buy Me Love'. That same year a family got the keys to a new brick-and-tile house on Alver Road, moved in and fell in love. Maybe The Beatles were wrong? 42 Alver Rd was built the way houses were built then, for one family and one lifetime. Solid brick. Pressed patterns in the ceilings. A tiled fireplace in the lounge, because ducted heating wasn't a thing yet. Timber sliding doors with frosted glass to close the lounge off from the kitchen — the doors you'd pull shut when the kids were doing homework on one side and the adults were talking on the other. A garage for one car, because one car was what you had. Sixty-two years later it's all still here. Blue and gold carpet in the lounge. Salmon coloured bathtub. Lace curtains over the kitchen sink. A cream kitchen with tell tale signs of a different generation; chairs still around the table. Three bedrooms, one bathroom and about 105 square metres under the main roof. The backyard is where the children grew up. A long run of lawn with a rotary clothesline, wide enough for a game and worn in the places you'd expect. An aviary along the fence. A shed in the corner. Out front, the rose garden and glorious frangipani accent a street presence that is as practical as it is nostalgic. The fundamentals are also strong. 708sqm. 21 metre frontage. R20 and naturally sloping away at the rear to take advantage of potential CBD and inland views. Hale School on the doorstep. Jackadder Lake is two minutes, the beach is five and city about fifteen. The street is quiet and elevated. The kind families have been seeking out for their forever home.
