Cared for by the same family for decades, this solid brick home sits behind established rose gardens in a quiet Hadfield street. It's ready to move into now, and there's plenty of scope to update it over time.
A tiled foyer leads to a formal lounge and dining room with decorative cornices, chandeliers and a gas heater set in a feature stone fireplace. At the rear, a big open plan living and meals area flows onto the kitchen. The kitchen has generous timber cabinetry, a gas cooktop and oven, a dishwasher and a split system. Sliding doors open to a covered patio.
There are three good sized bedrooms. The main bedroom has a ceiling fan, timber look flooring and a wide picture window looking over the front garden. A fourth room with a full wall of built in robes would work as a study, nursery or hobby room. The central bathroom has a bath, shower and vanity. A second bathroom with its own shower and toilet is combined with the laundry, which helps on busy mornings.
The backyard is made for family gatherings. A tiled patio overlooks a level lawn, established garden beds and a brick outdoor barbecue. Two garden sheds add storage. The oversized double garage measures 5.7 x 8.6 metres and includes its own kitchenette, so it could be a workshop, a second entertaining space or a place for the extended family on Sundays. There's also a covered carport, a long driveway and ducted heating throughout.
Everyday convenience is close by. A Coffee in North Street is a short stroll for your morning coffee. Woolworths, West Street Café, Bakery & Deli and Cafe Stradina are an easy walk away in the West Street shopping strip. Families can walk to St Thomas More Primary School, and Glenroy College is also nearby. Martin Reserve and its playground are close for weekend outings, and Gowrie Station on the Upfield line is about a five minute drive.
Whether you're a first home buyer, a growing family or planning a renovation, this home offers space, flexibility and a strong foundation in a tightly held pocket of Hadfield.
