On paper this home ticks all the boxes from the 5 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms to the large, mostly flat block in a location that is within walking distance of 3 schools, shops, restaurants, public transport and the best of everything that Kenmore has to offer. Built in 1964 with an upstairs extension added 20 years later and first time ever to market, this family home has clearly been well loved and maintained and already stood the test of time.
But the right house is always about more than just ticking boxes. It's about character, charm and easy-to-realise potential which … you guessed it … this home delivers in spades! Maybe it's the whimsy of the spiral staircase that greets you in the entryway, the original hardwood and terrazzo flooring, all the original fixtures and fittings or the expansive views across to Mt Coot-tha? Who knows but the opportunities to update are undoubtedly endless. Even simply repainting and ripping up the carpet to expose the timber floors will dramatically update and modernise this family home.
And the opportunities don't end with the house … set well back from the road and positioned on a very generously sized 832sqm, mostly flat block, the kids will have no trouble finding somewhere to tear about outside while still leaving plenty of space for the green-thumbed to work some planting magic or offering loads of room for a pool!
Larger homes that offer such great proportions, location and opportunity are rare and are always in strong demand. Be quick. This one certainly won't last.
