Picture this: a beautifully updated three-bedroom home, boasting a fabulous inner-north position, where you can simply move right in. Sounds incredible, right? Well, imagine no more because this refreshed Thornbury property – period weatherboard on the outside and modernity on the inside – is the ultimate turnkey abode.
Elevated to new heights thanks to its thoughtful design and a fresh lick of paint throughout, this home – two-lot property – is ready for you to begin making new memories.
Through the light-filled front entrance and beyond two of the three bedrooms (including a luxurious master with a big bay window, built-in robe and reading lights), you’ll quickly arrive at the kitchen and living areas – the centre of the home. Like the rest of the home, both rooms retain some of their original flourishes – think the cabinetry and oven furnace in the kitchen and the fireplace mantel in the living room – but with modern additions that promise contemporary functional design. For instance, the kitchen features a standalone stainless steel six-burner cooktop and oven, dishwasher and pendant lights over the island bench with breakfast bar; the living room, opposite, includes newly carpeted floors and split system heating and cooling.
To the back of the home you’ll find a slick laundry room with gorgeous black wooden wall panelling and the third bedroom, before stepping outside onto a timber deck, shaded by a huge pergola, in your foliage-filled yet low-maintenance backyard. Between the little lawn and bird of paradise shielding the surrounding fence from view the backyard is like your own private oasis. There’s even a shed that’s beautifully in keeping with the home’s exterior colour scheme.
Finally, the location promises effortless walkability and accessibility. From parklands to public transport, shops to schools, all of these essential amenities are within a two-kilometre radius; at a comfortable walking pace, it’ll take you no more than 10-15 minutes to reach any one of them.
This is, in many ways, a gloriously easy decision because all the hard work – the designing, the updating, the elevating – has been done for you. All you have to do is say yes. Will you?
