Enchanting family home

Slightly hidden behind pretty cottage gardens this charming, 1920s, weatherboard villa just gets better the closer you look. Enchanting in its architectural style, this character home showcases the spaciousness of the era.

Consisting of four very good-sized bedrooms, two bathrooms, one of which is a master ensuite, and two living areas, there is room for all the family. The family space comprises the living area, warmed by an extremely effective wood burner, kitchen, and dining space with French doors out to a private, covered patio area. The other living room is more intimate and can be closed off from the other areas.

The separate cabin at the rear of the property could be used as a hobby room or an extra bedroom for a teenager. There is a large double garage with a built-in bar which provides the perfect space for a drink and a game of darts or simply to put your vehicles inside. The driveway provides space for five cars and there is a carport - great for the trailer.

The large section of 2,230sqm (more or less) gives you a real feeling of living the good life - the vendors have had their own lambs and chickens, or you could create an orchard and vegetable plots to be fully self-sufficient. Developers should also add this property to their viewing list. Within close proximity to schools, shops, parks, and the hospital, this family home is effortlessly desirable.
