Mayfield East NSW 2304

The custom-made open kitchen with eating area is warm, inviting and the hub of this home. The current dining and lounge rooms could easily be swapped to cater for a large dinner party. The working fireplace and gas bayonets in both rooms create warmth while the split system air-conditioning and Ventis ventilation system ensure the heat of summer cannot intrude inside. The formal entry porch leads into the lounge while the functional traditional entry provides easy access from the quiet street and garage.
Environmental planning includes sustainable features such as photovoltaic cells, a rainwater tank which is connected to the toilet and laundry, Ventis ventilation in both the roof and the subfloor, as well as roof installed whirly birds control that dust and damp while also providing an efficient way to regulate temperature without excessive use of the split system air-conditioning. When using the air-conditioning, relax knowing solar energy is working hard instead of the coal power stations. Sky lights in the office, main bedroom and dining, create light filled areas for living. Recently installed roof attic storage provides 10 metres of flooring which could be converted into further living space.
The lockable garage has shelving and workshop space. The carport provides cover and studio space for kids' outdoor artworks. Swainson St is a quiet and safe Cul de sac with no through traffic and lovely neighbours who look out for each other. Currently there are a dozen kids living in the street attending various local schools.
The huge frangipani tree provides shade for multiple outdoor eating areas that are sun drenched all year round. The sturdy tree house and swing were custom made with access for both adults and children in mind. The garden has established fruit and citrus trees with two vegetable gardens. A native section creates a lovely visual display against the new fencing, providing a private space to play and live.
Polly Lane leads up to Mayfield East Public School and the Bell St park was originally built as a fully fenced village green for the British kids living with their parents who managed BHP in its early days. The layout of figs and camphor laurels resembles the eleven fielders in a cricket team awaiting the next person game to come and hit a six! It is a great place to climb trees or chase a football.
This home is central to everything; city, beach, parks and even the airport. Small legs can walk to Child Care Centres (KU, 6 Hats), primary schools (Mayfield East and St Columbans) as well as San Clemente secondary school. The Mayfield pool, supermarkets, library, banks, gourmet deli, vintage clothes shops, Barrio 2304 and Vincent's are a little bit further at 15-20 minutes walk. There are always new cafes popping up.
There is plenty of scope to stamp your own identity on this marvellous old home. Welcome, you will be delighted!
The easiest access to the home is by parking at the northern end of Holt Street, Mayfield East, near the park.

At MDRE we believe in Real Pricing
'Offers Over' pricing in our opinion is a deceptive and confusing way of selling a property and does not necessarily deliver the best outcome for the property seller or buyer.
With transparent pricing buyers are attracted to properties that are in their price range and they can actually make the commitment to purchase, 'no smoke and mirrors' just better outcomes.
P.S 'offers over' will be illegal from 1st January 2016, finally some good news for sellers and buyers.
