#soldbymcreynolds #soldbycris $1,150,000This classic three-bedder occupies an enviable position, moments from the bustling Dickson and Braddon hubs and a stone's throw from the CBD. Subtle updates compliment the vintage vibe and include easy-care ceramic flooring and the addition of a warming, north facing sunroom. Outside mature camelia trees compliment the red brick form, the garden wrapping around the home and providing plenty of scope for the creative green thumb. Living and dining are housed within one long and airy room, with a high pitched ceiling and glass sliders that open to embrace the sunshine. The deep front porch, perfectly angled to collect the northern sun, and the easy-care ceramic floors that stretch to meet creamy white walls. The kitchen is pretty in soft peach and features a large servery window. While adjacent, a clever extension has created a warming sunroom, dotted with windows to make the most of the northern light. One imagines spending whole winters here without the need for expensive heating, and come summer, opening the door to garden breezes. All three bedrooms frame leafy views and have built-in-robes for seamless storage. The family bathroom has a small bathtub and separate toilet. There is also an internal laundry that opens directly onto the rear garden. Already the wrap around grounds invite with their generous scope, soft lawns, paved alfresco area and pretty established plantings. But there is so much potential here - think bountiful vegetable and herb beds, tranquil dining spots beneath the trees and the joy of your own oasis, right on the edge of the city.There is driveway access from McGowan Street, ushering to a gated double garage, providing lots of off-street parking.Dickson is a sought-after village, known for its central locale within the dynamic inner-north.
