Perfect timing for your enjoyment this summer is this charming weatherboard highlighting wonderful outdoor entertaining spaces and engaging gardens that are shaded by a stunning Golden Elm in the front yard. Occupying a corner block, approx. 1000m2, and so close to Croydon shops and the train station, driving the car may become a rarity. In addition is the convenience of Aqua Hub gym and the indoor pool, the local library and council, the Croydon outdoor pool as well as Arndale shops in one direction and Croydon Central shops on Kent Avenue in the other. All within a short walk. Add to that list are nearby schools, including Swinburne Tafe, and multiple medical facilities on the way to Eastland or to access the freeway, including Ringwood private and Maroondah hospitals. Originally built in the 1930’s, the home maintains traditional features including high decorative ceilings, fret work, wood work including the original floorboards, and ornate light fittings. Tastefully enhanced along the way, the four bedroom floorplan combines yesteryear charm with modern necessity, offering a gas log fire in the formal lounge room, ducted heating throughout and evaporative cooling. Together with an inviting sun room which has the best garden views and natural sunlight in the home, a social dining room provides French door access to the back deck, and the family room is an added extra and provides a great space for kids to hang out or for entertaining. Both bathrooms are traditionally presented and the kitchen is a great space for everyday creations, featuring a French five burner stove and a dishwasher. Furthermore, this appealing residence features a double garage with remote roller door, gated driveway access, a water tank and landscaped gardens that encourage your attention to the outdoors.
