16 Tad St, Kenmore is a 5 bedroom, 3 bathroom House with 4 parking spaces. The property has a land size of 746m2. While the property is not currently for sale or for rent, it was last sold in September 2024. There are other 5 bedroom House sold in Kenmore in the last 12 months.
If you are a Kenmore native like me, you will no doubt 'get' this house the second you step past the front door. The exposed brick finishes, the rich hardwood stairs and railings, the timber ceilings, and above all the sense of cool and quiet that fills the entire home all bring you back to a time when hide and seek was the height of entertainment - and with all the storage in this home I can think of quite a few good hiding spots straight off the top of my head!
But it's not just the character or the potential for the kids' games that make this such a special family home. With the central living spaces all together on the second floor, four of the five bedrooms above and a private theatre room / rumpus tucked away behind the garage on entry level, you have a very natural separation of spaces that guarantees every member of your family their own privacy regardless of how many of you there may be. And that's not even factoring in the many outdoor living areas, from the courtyard off the dining to the covered back deck and open-air patio, to the gleaming swimming pool that is looking more and more enticing the warmer the weather gets!
There is so much to love about a home like this and the lifestyle that it offers that truly must be seen to be appreciated. Be quick to view!
