INSIDE DEEP-DIVE:
Step on to the updated front steps and welcoming indoor entry room to discover a Home where original character and polished presentation work beautifully together.
Beautiful restored original floorboards flow throughout much of the home, delivering warmth, authenticity and timeless appeal.
At the heart of the home, a central FORMAL LOUNGE ROOM creates an intimate, grounding space ideal for quieter evenings, conversation, reading or retreat.
This space then graduates toward the rear into a lighter, more open INFORMAL LIVING AND DINING DOMAIN where natural north and north-eastern light fills the room from sunrise to sunset.
The north-east dining room position is especially appealing, beautifully placed to enjoy glorious passing morning sun and a brighter, more energising start to the day; and the casual living room promises to bask in the whole day's lovely passing sun.
'The way this home transitions from cosy heart to light-filled living is simply beautiful,' says Selling Agent Jacqui Walker
The kitchen is light, white and tastefully renovated, positioned on the north-west corner with charming character styling, easy-clean stovetop, oven, microwave recess, dishwasher, dual sink, pantry, fridge recess and lovely bench space.
