Already extensively updated over its lifetime, this move-in-ready early '60s brick residence would make an ideal first home for a young family who might consider minimal décor changes down the track to reflect their own style and evolving needs.
Resting on a substantial 703 sqm (approx.) block with lovely stretches of lush lawn front and back, the home still has its original solid timber flooring, ornate ceiling roses and chandelier-style lighting, but key areas have been transformed. The kitchen is now a French Provincial-styled culinary hub with chic cabinets, granite benchtops, granite splashbacks and tapware, and an oversized gas cooker/oven and dishwasher - and it flows into a combined meals area/lounge with picture windows to the front yard.
For a couple with a newborn, the floorplan will appeal with the placement of the largest bedroom streetside, a smaller room next door that would be perfect as a nursery and the refurbished bathroom beside it - tiled floor-to-ceiling with a divine clawfoot tub and a separate shower. The third bedroom sits at the rear of the house, all 3 fitted with BIRs, and there's a big verandah for hosting alfresco feasts.
A bonus is the second living area - a standalone structure running off the back of the side carport - also exuding European country vibes with its French Door entry point and pretty casement windows for natural ventilation. This would make a terrific games room or home cinema and can start as a hobby hub for mum or dad before the teens take over!
In terms of location, this is a leisure-lovers' paradise close to golf clubs, big ovals, West Lakes, Grange and Henley Beaches. It's also an area well-served by vibrant local shopping hubs, popular zoned schooling and public transport.
