Rich in character and positioned in one of Preston’s most connected pockets, this charming weatherboard home blends classic period features with generous proportions and everyday functionality. Behind its elevated entry and covered front porch, the residence reveals high ceilings, decorative cornices, and beautiful hardwood flooring that immediately create a sense of warmth and space.
The open plan living, kitchen, and dining area forms the heart of the home. Spacious and filled with natural light from large timber framed windows, the zone is anchored by a fireplace that adds charm and ambience. Hardwood timber flooring and high ceilings enhance the sense of openness, while a gas heater provides comfort throughout the cooler months.
The L shaped kitchen is practical and well laid out, offering ample bench space, upper and lower cabinetry, tiled splashback, and a freestanding oven with gas cooktop and rangehood. A large window invites natural light into the space, and there is dedicated room for a double door fridge. Easy care flooring ensures durability in this high use area.
Accommodation includes three generously sized bedrooms, each with high ceilings and large windows. The two front bedrooms showcase beautiful hardwood flooring, stained glass window detailing, and ample storage, while the rear bedroom is carpeted for added comfort and also offers generous storage.
The bathroom retains its period inspired character with half height tiled walls featuring a decorative border, terracotta style floor tiles, shower over bath configuration, single vanity with storage, and a frosted window for privacy. A separate WC enhances practicality.
A dedicated laundry provides excellent functionality, complete with linen cupboard, sink, overhead storage cupboards, under bench cabinets, tiled flooring, and direct backyard access via a security screen door.
Outdoor living is equally impressive. The rear features an undercover patio ideal for entertaining, along with a large backyard offering a combination of lawn and paved areas framed by established mature trees. A detached garage or shed and side access driveway provide additional versatility and storage.
The home’s classic weatherboard façade, original style timber windows, brick pathway, and established greenery further reinforce its enduring appeal.
The location offers outstanding convenience. Close to Bell Station and with the 86 tram at your doorstep, commuting and access to High Street’s renowned dining and shopping precinct is effortless, including the iconic Keys bowling alley and vibrant café culture. The property is opposite Parade College Preston Campus and zoned for Preston South Primary School.
