Last Listing description (April 2023)
The home at 39 McCawley Street is full of possibility, renovated internally, it's ready for you to live the lifestyle you want, right on the fringe of the City while offering potential to extend the home further into the large front yard to add further value.
Inside, the home meshes its historical charm with a contemporary style. Chic plantation shutters adorn the windows, while bamboo covers the floors. Each of the bedrooms have built in robes, including two separate robes in the main bedroom to ensure enough wardrobe space for two people.
The kitchen has been renovated for an easy, modern cooking lifestyle. There are plenty of storage options like a corner pantry and even a covered storage space at the end of the bench which is perfect for hiding away appliances like a toaster or kettle if you prefer a minimal look in your home. The inclusion of an island benchtop offers more than enough preparation space and doubles as a breakfast bar.
The adjoining living room is open plan and has a beautiful outlook through large windows to the leafy garden out front, inviting the light and greenery inside makes it a serene and enjoyable space to reside in.
The front boasts a large lawn surrounded by lovely landscaping and mature trees. It's an ideal area for kids to run around in or to simply soak up the sunlight. The fun continues around the back, with a large covered entertaining deck, where it's easy to have family and friends around, no matter the weather. It's already decked out (pardon the pun), with power, gas for a BBQ, lighting and you could even install bistro blinds to help control the sunlight. The rest of the yard is incredibly low maintenance with only concrete in the surrounding spaces.
Just 300 metres away, the tram will zip you down Northbourne Avenue and to Dickson, Braddon or the City for work or play. But when it all gets too much, you can quickly and easily retreat back to this beautiful home and feel at peace once more.
