Last Listing description (November 2022)

Freshly schemed interiors highlighted by crisp, neutral dcor with timber floors, timber lined walls, and ornate ceilings and plate ledges hinting at its early circa 1900's heritage, this cute as a button home is a delightful find. A picture of traditional charm and character yet functioning as a modern home with its smartly updated kitchen and bathroom, it offers a superb ready-to-enjoy opportunity for buyers seeking entry into sought-after Merewether.

With its classic double fronted layout, a central hallway splits three robed bedrooms before the air-conditioned lounge room adjoins a bright kitchen and dining area, large laundry and full-size family bathroom with shower over bath and on-trend matte black tapware. The lovely back garden, complete with established plants and deck, is an oasis of calm with plenty of privacy and space for entertaining on offer. Along with off-street parking for up to four vehicles, a surprising element of this home is the backyard studio. A light-filled open plan space, this highly versatile building inspires endless possibilities as a home office, artist's studio, backyard rumpus, or as a more private place for the young adult or older relative in the family.

Ticking the final box, the wonderfully handy location is a short stroll from The Junction's specialty shops, vibrant eateries and top schools and offers easy access to the beach, CBD and Westfield Kotara.
