Brimming with character and individual style, this inviting brick home combines thoughtfully updated interiors with generous outdoor space on approximately 650sqm. Established gardens frame the welcoming façade, setting the scene for a home with warmth, personality and practical appeal for first home buyers, families and astute investors.
From the front porch, the entry hallway introduces timber floors and leads to a comfortable living room overlooking the garden. An ornate ceiling, decorative cornices and a rich colour palette give this space its distinctive charm, creating a welcoming setting to relax or gather with family. Two generous bedrooms sit along the hallway, while the adjoining kitchen and dining area brings contemporary convenience to the home’s classic character. Contrasting cabinetry, a striking patterned splashback and ample bench and cupboard space are complemented by a freestanding oven with gas cooktop, stainless steel rangehood and dishwasher.
Towards the rear, a third bedroom and spacious study provide flexibility for family life, working from home or pursuing hobbies. The updated bathroom makes a stylish impression with terrazzo-look tiling, a floating timber vanity, feature basin and textured glass shower screen, alongside a separate bath and shower. A rear laundry completes the practical layout and provides convenient access outdoors.
The covered alfresco area opens onto an expansive timber deck, creating an inviting space to entertain friends and family, enjoy weekend lunches or unwind overlooking the garden. Landscaped paving and established planting add further interest, while the large, secure rear yard offers a wonderful place for children and pets to play safely. A long side driveway leads to the garage/workshop, providing valuable space for parking, storage and projects.
