Rarely do homes appear on the Blackheath property market that combine so many virtues into one very desirable package.
89 Govetts Leap Road is such a home.
Set on a very manageable 588m² block with established, low maintenance garden areas, this home is only a short eight minute stroll to the village centre.
The home itself has been beautifully restored, including a recent exterior repaint and a new, fully insulated roof as well. So rest easy, you will be snug and warm whatever the weather may throw at you.
Environmental concerns and lower energy bills have been addressed too, with a 7.2kW solar system having recently been installed with a 10 kW home battery.
Boosting these credentials is a large heat pump hot water System, along with the installation of energy efficient reverse cycle air-conditioning.
The entry to this this home is well worth a mention too, the current owners have double glazed this sweet little room to create the most delicious and warm winter sun trap.
This charming and warming space has been named by the current owners as the 'Sun Snug', and it definitely lives up to its name!
Imagine a warming bowl of soup here on a cold winter's day, just perfect in shorts and a T Shirt whilst outdoors is wintry and chilly, pure bliss!
The home, as currently configured, has three bedrooms.
The main east-facing bedroom is drenched with light and has a lovely generous north facing ensuite, complete with a spa bath big enough for two.
The second bedroom sits alongside the main bedroom and is currently utilised as a walk-in robe (and music room!).
The third bedroom off the main lounge room is also north-facing, with a pleasant garden outlook and its own ensuite, how good is this?
Now...if you are looking for a vast array of living spaces, then you have found it. The main lounge room -adjoining a bright and functional kitchen- is generous to say the least, with a massive stone fireplace.
At the rear of the house there is a huge sunlit, glassed-in conservatory that has a lounge/dining area and even room for a table tennis table.
From here you can walk onto an enclosed sun-drenched courtyard, complete with a covered Cabana and an outdoor dining area, as well as a Barbeque and a fire pit. A giant Camelia tree overlooks a small pond fringed with native reeds.
There are also two converted verandah areas currently utilised as studies, one for him and one for her, which were advertised as bedrooms when the property was purchased by the current owners. So the option is there for more sleeping spaces if desired.
Running off the kitchen is the laundry/pantry with linen cupboards, heaps of storage and a separate loo plus another bathroom -currently used as a storeroom- just in case!
I said there was a surprising lot going on in this compact footprint!
Oh! Have I mentioned the carport and garden shed?
So come along and have a look. This property is a rare find, ideal for those who want to move into an inviting home that has been well maintained, with nothing to do but simply enjoy it!
