What a glorious offering! - This two story double brick 1952 home is tucked away in a private, no through road - wonderfully quiet and peaceful yet such incredibly convenient proximity to Calvary Hospital, the scrummy 'strip' of delightful food stores in Augusta Road, great schools, transport and of course a very quick trip 'the back way' to the CBD.
Offering some truly beautiful original features such as stunning decorative ceiling pieces - quite deco in nature, warm timber features throughout, stand out feature wrought iron stair railing leading to the lower level, this home really is so appealing in every respect.
With an incredible feeling of spaciousness due the high ceilings, and abundant light, the upper level of this home features large formal lounge, adjacent formal dining, corner kitchen - so sunny! and two fantastic sized bedrooms. Downstairs comprises another living/family room, kitchenette, bathroom, laundry and two more bedrooms.
Decades ago this lovely family home was council approved as two separate dwellings - this may be appealing to prospective purchasers who wish to re-create this environment (STCA) or would ideally suit those with elderly relatives or additional family members to accommodate with a degree of separation and privacy.
Both levels enjoy a private deck - the upper level flowing from the formal living room via new French doors - and the deck on this level has also been glassed in - a highly attractive and functional addition to the house to ensure you can enjoy a meal through summer to the inclement winter months. The views are northerly and Mt Direction and the Derwent River are on offer as are the twinkling lights of neighbouring suburbs of an evening.
The gardens are a delight and the product of decades of diligent planning and evolution - featured at the entrance of the home a tranquil enclosed pond with relaxing water-fall feature. The hedging at the side of the house is dense, thick and tall - years of growth providing great privacy screening in addition to the fencing. The rest of the grounds all enjoy established gardens and there are vegetable patches on site for those green thumbs! And best of all - NO LAWNS to mow!
Off street parking is a rare commodity in this area but this home offers a single lock up garage (huge in height - a mezzanine floor could easily be accommodated) and secure parking for two other vehicles.
If you are seeking a large family home in a highly sought after location but wish to avoid traffic noise/hustle and bustle of being on a high use street - this is PERFECT!
Priced competitively and with the ability to add further value - this is a must see! Angelina will be delighted to see you at the open or welcomes your call for a private inspection.
