Set in a well-presented location with an abundance of character and space for a growing family, 39 Ballarat Street is definitely anything but a 'standard' home.
Being the labour of love for the past five years for the current owners, considerable effort has gone into restoring the charm and appeal of this 1970's construction, whilst maintaining exactly that which has proven to attract buyers in droves.
Well-researched buyers will immediately recognise features such as the split-level living and exposed beams that were common in the 'Willemsen' and 'Pettit & Sevitt' designs of the 1970s, and polished timber flooring and an inviting slow-combustion wood heater add to the 'homely' feel.
The upper level comprises three main bedrooms and both the renovated bathroom (with separate toilet) and ensuite, with an additional utility room extending from the master suite. The lower level contains the main living and dining room, the updated kitchen and the enclosed sunroom in what is a perfect layout for families that require a little separation every now and then.
A fourth bedroom at the rear of the property offers additional functionality for those larger families, as it could also be used as a rumpus, while a long list of additional extras such as freshly restored roofing, split-system air conditioning, established yards and two outdoor entertaining areas only add to the appeal of the much loved home.
The current owners are sad to see it go, but couldn't be more excited that such a possibility could be awaiting the next proud investor or growing family, and we're sure it will continue to surprise buyers from the moment they enter.
