CLASSIC COLONIAL WITH ROSE GARDEN
This older style cream brick colonial gem with contrasting dark tiled roof, wide eaves and decorative timber trimmings has a delightful, fully established, fragrant rose garden at the front. It offers a spacious floor plan with well proportioned rooms and fantastic potential for future enhancement and refurbishment. It is positioned close to public transport, hospital, excellent shopping and provides convenient access to both the city and the beach.
Offering a choice of two or three bedrooms, the current floor plan includes two bedrooms, a spacious light and bright gas heated front lounge room, separate dining room, a north facing eat-in kitchen, separate good size laundry and separate bathroom all adjoining and accessed from the central L-shaped passageway.
The original kitchen has a gas stove, stainless steel sink, floor cupboards and ample bench top space. The tiled bathroom has a large shower recess and corner vanity unit while the separate toilet is off the laundry.
Special features include entry hall, decorative cornices, sliding glass door entry to the lounge room, ducted cooling, reverse cycle air conditioning in the lounge, storage space in the laundry plus a deep linen closet in the hallway. There is outdoor access to a wide back verandah from both the laundry and kitchen. There are security shutters and screens on doors and windows, exterior blinds on several windows, outdoor lighting and a brick garage with roller door and power connected. The cement driveway is long enough to accommodate several vehicles.
The gardens around the home have been immaculately cared for and a watering system has been installed. The back garden has a variety of established shrubs including roses. The lush green lawn in the back yard could entice you to enjoy a friendly game of lawn bowls on a balmy summer evening.
This traditional colonial home is appealing, has been carefully maintained and is extremely comfortable. It would ideally suit those looking to successfully downsize but still wishing to enjoy the pleasure of a garden, the renovator or investor or first home buyer with a young family who appreciate the benefits of near city living.
