Positioned in an exceptional location for everyday convenience, this much-loved and well-maintained 1978 home presents a rare combination of character, space and exciting future potential.
Set on a generous 704sqm block, the property offers not only a charming two-bedroom residence with beautifully established gardens, but also the potential to explore the addition of a granny flat/ancillary dwelling, subject to the relevant approvals and requirements of the City of Rockingham. Whether you're looking to accommodate extended family, create a private space for guests, or add flexibility and potential value to the property, this is an opportunity worth investigating with Council.
Inside, the home retains an abundance of original charm, including ornate arches and character features throughout. The practical floorplan provides two bedrooms, a central bathroom and multiple living areas, while the generous grounds offer plenty of room to consider your future plans.
A spacious front lounge provides a comfortable retreat, complete with a gas fire and reverse-cycle air conditioning, while the adjoining kitchen and dining area offers a practical hub for everyday living. Timber-look vinyl flooring, a ceiling fan, freestanding oven, breakfast bar and ample cabinetry provide functionality, with sliding doors opening through to the inviting rear sunroom.
Extending along the rear of the home, the enclosed sunroom provides an abundance of additional living space, with large windows overlooking the gardens and a separate room that could function as a home office, hobby area or activity room. Sliding doors provide a seamless connection to the sheltered rear patio and garden.
Both bedrooms are positioned privately to front of the home and feature carpeted floors and built-in robes. The central bathroom retains its distinctive original tiling and features a generous shower enclosure, Roman bath and glass screening.
Outside, the property truly comes into its own. A spacious lawned front garden is framed by established planting and ornate fencing, while the long driveway provides excellent access to the freestanding double garage with dual roller doors. At the rear, the fully fenced gardens feature established beds, manicured lawn, paved alfresco entertaining and plenty of space to enjoy or potentially enhance.
With the size of the block and its convenient layout, the potential for a future granny flat is a particularly compelling feature. Buyers should make their own enquiries with the City of Rockingham regarding zoning, setbacks, approvals, servicing and all other requirements applicable to any proposed ancillary dwelling.
