Last Listing description (April 2019)
With exceptional street appeal and peacefully nestled in a desirable location adjacent to the Aranda Bush Nature Reserve is this one-of-a-kind Hacienda style six bedroom family home.
Offering immense charm and character, the substantial privately built home is tucked behind an inviting front entrance and private spanish style courtyard.
The much loved two storey residence is well presented and ideally suited to growing families who will appreciate the flexibility this floor plan offers with a choice of four separate living areas, inclusive of a separate and spacious one bedroom self contained flat that is located downstairs. All of this, whilst still providing the opportunity for a creative buyer to add their own improvements and personal touches to the home over time.
On entering the home you are greeted with the warmth of rustic timber and terracotta floors, an inviting formal living room and spacious study that wraps around to the dining room and outdoor terrace - the perfect locale for watching evening sunsets with a glass of wine. The functional kitchen offers granite benchtops and gas cooking and a meals area which leads to a spacious laundry with an abundance of storage. The family room with its unique pot belly stove is the central hub of the home and flows out to the delightful sunroom extension with its large picture windows capturing a leafy outlook across the backyard and neighbouring reserve.
Segregated from the main living areas is the accommodation quarters which include the master bedroom boasting an ensuite and bedrooms two, three, four and five; all with built in robes and custom built shelving. Three of the bedrooms include study desks, ideal for homework time! The main bathroom and separate toilet are also conveniently located in this wing.
The spacious 74sqm one bedroom, self contained flat is in original condition and offers both internal and external entrances - perfect as a home office, teenagers retreat, visiting guests or rental proposition.
The double brick abode is light and airy throughout and has recently been painted both inside and out. Added wall, ceiling and floor insulation assist with the high energy rating of 4.0.
Setting this home apart from all the rest, is its size, character, generous parcel of land, and whisper quiet location - creating a lifestyle opportunity seldom found so close to the city centre.
