Stone-clad and held tightly by the same family for some 25 years, it's not often a home can outshine its radar of elite schools, city reach, popular parks and hiking trails with resplendent 1960s style.
This one does.
The unique 3-bedroom (plus study) design embraces high-gloss timber floors, whitewashed timber panelling, and exterior stonework that delights and weaves its way inside to feature in the opening lounge – artistry that won over its present owners - against a combustion fire, thatched straw ceilings, and layers of garden softness.
A room that wraps you like a warm hug.
Down the sunlit corridor opposite, all 3 robed bedrooms are led by the master suite, its plush front position offering wall-to-wall sliding robes; the nearby updated bathroom (and separate WC) has bettered its retro past, while the rear study/home office – today's essential – is a retro flashback with a tranquil backyard gaze.
Wrapped in benchtops and storage, the renovated kitchen brings a stainless gas stove, oven, dishwasher, and an eat-in island perch to its function, extending a servery pass to the adjoining family/dining room.
Its sunroom vibe glides outdoors through sliding glass to a tiled patio edging established grounds, a paved alfresco bordered by fruit trees, and a novel woodshed adding plenty of character to an already charming home…
Set amongst similar classics in a suburb praised for them, how can you possibly go wrong?
You can't. Shouldering Colonel Light Gardens, in proximity to St. Therese's School, Clapham Primary, Mercedes and Scotch Colleges (with private school pick-ups via Eliza Place), it's time for this handmade tale to serve another generation.
