Experience the pure definition of the term the "leafy Western suburbs" where this 1960s gem enjoys both the convenience and exceptional views that come from its location opposite the lush Akuna Street Parklands. The enchanting lifestyle begins on the expansive covered deck, a perfect vantage point for savouring the picturesque leafy vista and delightful breezes while entertaining 30 of your nearest and dearest at a family celebration (seriously, our sellers have sat this many down to lunch on the deck) to just chilling out with a coffee from the multiple coffee shops that are a mere 5 minute walk away.
Inside, the home offers an unmatched ambiance with a stylish blend of character and modern comfort. Original Tasmanian hardwood floors, large picture windows, and glass sliding doors seamlessly merge the indoor and outdoor worlds. A tastefully renovated kitchen, featuring stone benchtops and top-of-the-line Miele appliances, is a culinary delight. Clever renovations over the years have retained the warmth of the 1960s charm while introducing contemporary elements, such as solar panels, air conditioning, and a wood-burning fireplace, creating the perfect haven for every season.
Step outside, and the kids' dreams come true with a flat backyard for play, a cubby house, and a swimming pool for endless summer fun. The lifestyle extends beyond the doorstep, with shops, restaurants, public transport, sports fields, playgrounds and bike paths to the CBD all within walking distance. This is your invitation to live amongst the treetops, bask in nature's embrace, and revel in the convenience of a Kenmore lifestyle that truly has it all.
