A full-width verandah with geometric tiled flooring fronts this charming character villa, C.1890, pairing period features with modern updates all nestled on a broad 658sqm (approx) in the desirable city-fringe enclave that is Prospect!
Its exposed stone and rendered facade make for a quaint first impression, while manual gates guard the driveway and leads into an elongated carport capable of accommodating multiple vehicles.
Enter via the grand timber front door and into the central hallway where original-style timber panel doors, deep skirting boards and retained wall trim frame the path to three bedrooms and two bathrooms. The internal palette is light, bright and homely with lots of texture from natural wood features and original hardwood flooring that runs throughout.
The main bedroom has a walk-in robe and ensuite, while ceiling roses and decorative fireplace mantels bring more of the home's period character to the front rooms. The separate lounge centres around a fireplace beneath an ornate ceiling rose, giving you a second living zone for quieter evenings, with 3.2m ceilings adding further scale here.
At the rear, open-plan living and dining gather around the U-shaped kitchen, where a tiered timber-look counter ledge wraps the work zone. Gloss white cabinetry, a pale green glass splash back and pendant lighting keep the palette bright, with a freestanding stainless-look oven and Bosch dishwasher handling the practical work. Broad windows and glazed double doors connect seamless to the outdoors while infusing natural light throughout the communal zone.
Outside, the curved-roof verandah stretches across the rear, shading a red-brick-paved terrace ideal for entertaining. An expansive lawn area extends from here with luscious planted garden beds framing brick pathways that leads to a large clothesline area positioned under neath the towering trees. Its the kind of backyard where young imaginations can thrive as, can green thumbs who love to potter in the garden on their weekends. A large 5m x 8m shed sits quietly at the back ready to securely store equipment, tools and garden supplies.
The single-level layout and broad grounds make this Prospect address easy to settle into, with little left to be done but enjoy. Its luscious gardens and original features offer the perfect blend of comfort and leisure, and its proximity to Prospect Road makes it an ideal post-code for buyers seeking real estate in a thriving local community with bustling cafes and restaurants!
