Featuring 3 large bedrooms at the front of the home, all with elegant plantation shutters and 2 with feature fireplaces, a large formal living, spacious kitchen and meals area, and tastefully updated laundry and bathroom area - there is a lot to love here.
A joy too cook in whether its nightly meals for the family or hosting friends for fun dinners, the kitchen includes lots of cabinetry and bench top space, stainless steel appliances including dishwasher for easy cleaning and handy breakfast bar for quick, casual eats.
Outside you'll find a property-wide verandah with pulldown caf blinds for perfect outdoor entertaining as well as a fully integrated barbeque area with polished concrete bench tops and bar fridge. Tucked undercover you can also find an outdoor spa that'll let you make the most of this west-facing backyard where twilight dinners and relaxing under the sunset will quickly become summer time rituals.
A good stretch of lush lawn and established trees adds a welcome touch of greenery plus plenty of space for the kids to play or family pet to roam, while the long undercover carport extends all the way into the backyard for more entertaining or storage space.
The stylishly updated bathroom and laundry add a wonderfully elevated and modern feel to this character home. Featuring gorgeous marbled herringbone tiling in the shower, crisp white on grey floor-to-ceiling tiling, stone bench top, skylight and floating vanity as well as a second toilet also with floor-to-ceiling tiling, there is excellent functionality as well as convenience here. While the laundry is supremely spacious and includes lots of storage and bench top space as well.
Ideal for the young couple or growing family eager to get their foot in the hugely popular west, not to mention a beautiful character home that's also walking distance to Lockleys Primary School, around the corner from great local cafs and restaurants, and 5-minutes from the vibrant Henley Beach Road shopping precinct for all your shopping and amenity needs - 18 Gertrude Street absolutely promises to be the start of something special!
