Perfectly positioned just a few steps from the main hub of both Blackwood and Shepherds Hill Recreation Park, this reinvigorated charming home perfectly balances the contrast between urban amenities and the natural splendour of its surrounding foothills landscape.
From a fa?ade set back from the street, original stone and crazy pave create a stylish distinction between the lush greens of the encompassing treescape, whilst picture windows invite the scenery into the comforting three-bedroom footprint.
One that begins with a spacious yet cosy lounge room, warmed by the afternoon sun, timber floorboards and a wood-burning fireplace to really heat things up come winter.
Feature timber ceilings carry through to the three bedrooms, each boasting built-in robes and direct access to a bright main bathroom with family-friendly bathtub and separate toilet.
Crisp clean lines feature throughout both updated kitchen and dining, accompanied by ample bench space, electric cooking and dishwasher.
From here, French doors open to a lovely sheltered patio, encouraging you to enjoy the serenity of your morning coffee, connecting via split-level path to another undercover area and newly erected outdoor studio - a splendid space to setup a home office or hobby room.
Taking the stone-laden steps down to the lower level of bountiful native gardens, there's plenty of nooks for kids to explore and the perfect tree to hang a swing or create a treehouse hideaway.
