Auction Location: Onsite Auction - 72 Marsden Street Dickson.
Set under the tranquil tree canopy of Marsden Street and walking distance to schools, restaurants, and green spaces, this home presents an exceptional opportunity for families seeking a space to grow in a highly sought-after pocket of Dickson. With a beautifully flowing layout, generous front and rear yards, and a quiet neighbourhood, it's a home that delivers a peaceful lifestyle, within arm's reach of all the city comforts.
Nestled on a generous block, this well cared for four-bedroom home feels open and inviting from the moment you step inside, with northern light filling the living spaces all year-round. The retro charm of the house has been thoughtfully updated with modern comforts, including dual-function honeycomb blinds throughout the home which help to regulate temperature and privacy. Ceiling insulation, multi-zoned reverse-cycle air conditioning, and ceiling fans further ensure comfort through every season.
The central living and dining area is the heart of the home, a bright and comfortable space for family time, entertaining or relaxing at the end of the day. The adjoining spacious kitchen with dishwasher, ample storage, and views to the backyard flows seamlessly from the living spaces and allows for a relaxed start to busy mornings.
Four generously sized and thoughtfully positioned bedrooms, all with built-in robes, are serviced by a central bathroom and separate toilet, comfortably accommodating a growing family. Ceiling fans and large windows create peaceful spaces to work from home, rest, or play. The main bedroom is particularly spacious and enjoys views over the leafy front garden. Set apart from the remaining bedrooms and living spaces, it provides a quiet retreat to unwind.
A large laundry with extra storage leads out to a rear deck and generous backyard. The northern aspect bathes large raised beds and established fruit trees in light, providing endless potential to grow your favourite foods and flowers. The backyard is perfect for pets, with plenty of open space for weekend barbeques, a trampoline, or an expanded veggie garden. A three-car garage allows space for a workshop, or to protect vehicles from the elements. The leafy front garden offers easy-maintenance flower beds, designed to have plants flowering throughout the year, and a raised garden bed to the front of the block creates a growing screen.
With Dickson's bustling restaurants, supermarkets, cafés, excellent schools, public transport, and open green areas at your doorstep, the location of this home is truly unbeatable. Start your day with a walk around the Dickson wetlands, spend weekends at Dickson pool or the nearby oval and playgrounds, or pause for a coffee after dropping the kids at school, a well-connected and comfortable family lifestyle begins here.
