After more than 50 years of ownership, this much-loved family home is ready to begin its next chapter. Cherished by the same family since the early 1970s, 488 Hartley Street offers an opportunity to secure a home with a wonderful sense of history, generous proportions and plenty of space for the family to enjoy.
From the street, the property is surprisingly deceptive, with the true size and versatility of the home revealed once you step inside. Offering five generous-sized bedrooms, two bathrooms and multiple living areas, there is plenty of room for the whole family to spread out, relax and enjoy their own space.
Set on a substantial 954.8m² parcel of land, the property also provides plenty to enjoy outdoors. An inground swimming pool creates a wonderful setting for summer days and family gatherings, while the 5.1m x 7.4m garage with power provides excellent space for secure vehicle accommodation, storage, a workshop or those with additional hobbies and projects.
Inside, the home retains the charm and character of its era, providing a wonderful opportunity for buyers who appreciate a home with history and personality. You can move straight in and enjoy the existing comfort and character, while also having the scope to modernise and make improvements over time to suit your own taste and lifestyle.
The location is exceptionally convenient for families, with Lavington Public School just 190 metres from your front door, making the daily school run wonderfully easy. A local corner store is only 300 metres away for those everyday essentials, while Urana Road Oval is just 150 metres down the road, placing a fantastic range of sporting facilities right on your doorstep. The oval is home to the Murray Magpies Football & Netball Club, New City Cricket Club and Lavington Tennis Club, providing plenty of opportunities to enjoy an active lifestyle and become part of the local sporting community. Beyond these immediate conveniences, Lavington Shopping Centre, public transport, leafy parkland and walking tracks are all within easy reach.
Having been lovingly held by one family for over five decades, this is more than simply a property. It is a home with a story, generous space and plenty of opportunity for its next owners to create their own memories. Whether you are looking for a spacious family home, a property with room to update over time or a large block in a highly convenient location, then this residence is well worth your inspection.
