This family home has distinctive mid-century street appeal and is situated on approx. 787 m2 in a peaceful location, just a short walk to a light rail stop, Gang cafe, Downer pre-school and many sought after schools, parks and ovals.
Outstanding features include the perfect north aspect to open plan living areas and front terrace, and the flexibility offered by the floor plan, so that the home may be enjoyed either as a three bedroom, one bathroom residence, with a self-contained one bedroom flat sharing the laundry, or a comfortable four bedroom, two bathroom, two kitchen family home!
The large front entertaining terrace basks in sunshine over cooler months, sheltered by a new pergola with clear sheeting, and is densely screened by trees and shrubs.
The covered entrance opens to the well presented home featuring fresh neutral decor throughout and modern laminate flooring, which extends from the wide entry through the first three bedrooms.
Spacious open plan living areas are bathed in winter sunlight, with double glazing to the large, hardwood framed windows and French doors. The generous sunken lounge features a high ceiling and attractive floor tiles which absorb the warmth, and there is a flued gas heater.
Hardwood parquetry flooring is a highlight in the dining area and a glass door opens onto the inviting front terrace, with attractive gardens providing the perfect outlook for entertaining and relaxing.
Sun streams into the updated kitchen, offering a good area of bench space, gas cooktop, Electrolux oven, a huge amount of storage along one wall, a pillar of re-claimed timber from Thor's Hammer and access to the covered rear terrace, with a ramp.
A reverse cycle air conditioner ensures comfort and 16 solar panels offset costs. Solar hot water supplies the main part of the house, with Rinnai instantaneous hot water to the flat.
Bedrooms all offer built-in robes. The first is segregated close to the entry, while the second features a high raked ceiling with celestial windows, and third overlooks a stunning camellia. The main bathroom offers a bath, shower and separate w/c.
The comfortable flat is full of light from the large window to open plan living, framing a garden view and furnished with a timber blind. There is a reverse cycle air conditioner and polished flooring features throughout. The kitchen has an upright stove with gas cooktop. The bedroom offers a built-in robe and the bathroom a shower with separate w/c.
Car accommodation is provided by a carport and garage, with storage space at the side and back. A large workshop in the rear garden has lighting, power and lock-up storage.
