This fresh-faced family home might have early '60s origins, its solid timber floorboards still very much a highlight, but upscaling over its lifetime has elevated comfort levels to meet 21st-century expectations. Today, 6 Gurney Terrace has a gourmet kitchen, a hefty array of solar panels, and a rendered finish across its brick façade -and there's still scope to value-add by reworking its generous 5-bed footprint!
Currently, the sleeping quarters place the largest bedroom at the front, with a single-size (nursery) beside it; the other 3 run down the opposite side of the house, one close to the family bathroom (shower-over-tub) and 2 off the rear living area. If you wished, you could investigate joining the front 2 rooms to create a luxe master ensuite for the heads of the household.
Without lifting a finger, this place is spacious and high-functioning just as it is. The timber flooring spans all the beds and stretches from the entry foyer through a combined formal lounge and dining room into the designer culinary hub that's gleaming with stainless steel mod cons - the centrepiece of which is a freestanding BOSCH gas cooker/oven.
Behind the breakfast bar, a tiled open plan meals area/family living area is the perfect spot to set up a pool table, and the screened sliders onto the rear verandah allow the whole house to capture welcoming, bug-free breezes. A tad over 11m long, the verandah overlooks a fenced backyard with a shady tree, pretty gardens, a paved firepit zone, a workshop and a tool shed.
If you're looking to settle into a home that can evolve with your family as you navigate the long schooling years, this is it! In addition to its size and functional layout, 6 Gurney Terrace offers proximity to popular state and private schools, a range of supermarkets, hip dining spots, and buses into town.
