On entry you immediately feel the charm and privacy of this lovely 1940’s home, tucked well back from the road and embraced by mature hedging and gardens. Warm, inviting and sun-soaked, this home has been loved and thoughtfully maintained throughout the years, while keeping all the character that makes a home special. French doors from the main bedroom spill out onto a large sunny deck, perfect for that morning coffee, and the light filled living flows easily through to the rear deck and lawn, a proper little hideaway that welcomes you the moment you arrive.
Interior
The living spaces are cosy and effortless, a sociable, light open plan with a delightful sunroom off the lounge that’s perfect as a day room or quiet reading nook. The ornate potbelly stove brings instant atmosphere on cooler nights and, together with a heat pump and partial double glazing and the recent insulation, helps the home feel warm and snug. The kitchen is tidy, practical and quietly modern, and the bathroom boasts a powerful shower. There’s generous storage throughout and an extra room off the main bedroom that makes an ideal home office or hobby space.
Exterior features
Outdoor living is a highlight here, with decks at both the front and rear give you morning sun and evening sunsets, with effortless indoor/outdoor flow for relaxed entertaining. The 1012m2 section is fully fenced and neatly divided so the back garden can be kept as a secure area for children or pets. Mature planting, fruit trees and sheltered lawns create privacy and a real sense of tranquillity. Enjoy the benefits of the most recent upgrades of coloursteel roof, added insulation and the exterior refresh.
