What's around 17 Forster Street

The "Tardis"

Behind the exterior of this unassuming Edwardian home is a real surprise, and it is now offered for sale at a very realistic price, and the owner wants an offer. Just like the "Tardis", don't judge a book by it's cover. Fully renovated, and displaying excellent street appeal, this home has a large modern extension at the rear that is just what the doctor ordered for all manner of tastes. Whether you are a consummate entertainer or a busy Mum with a family, this superbly designed home is likely to cater well for your ideals. With a great mix of old and new this home has 4 double bedrooms, 2 bathrooms plus powder room, 2 spacious living areas, study (or 5th bedroom) and a modern kitchen with granite benches. The modern extension features a 12 metre by 6 metre open plan living and kitchen with polished Tas Oak flooring and direct access to a private courtyard with a low maintenance garden through a choice of 3 sets of French doors. There is also a separate living or rumpus room that would make an ideal home cinema room, formal study and a spacious laundry in this extension. Both bathrooms have been finished to a very high standard with each of them having high-end spa baths, separate showers and vanities. Even the powder room has been finished to a very high standard. The kitchen is perfect for budding chefs and features granite bench-tops, central island bench, stainless steel appliances and good pantry space. This superbly finished home has a mixture of ultra modern practical living and bathroom facilities whilst retaining the old world charm of high ceilings, ornate fireplaces, picture rails and baltic pine flooring in the bedrooms. Heating is supplied by reverse cycle air conditioning and electric wall panels, whilst hot water is serviced by town connected gas. Situated close to shops, schools and all services on offer in the New Town area this property would make an ideal home for a larger family or a perfect entertainer that is low maintenance and very spacious. Very worthy of inspection.
