1930s charm meets 21st Century comfort at 42 The Strand; a gorgeous Tudor-style 3-bedroom residence with a classic red-brick façade and gabled roof, stylishly refurbished kitchen and bathroom, and a sublime position overlooking parkland at the end of a tree-lined cul-de-sac.
The house sits behind picket fencing and clipped hedges on a generous 690sqm (approx.) block with cushioned lawn front and back. Inside, a well-considered renovation has elevated comfort levels without losing any of the property's historic allure - solid timber floorboards, sash windows, decoratively panelled ceilings and ornate fretwork in the entry hall, all lovingly retained.
Adjacent to the meals area and opening onto the rear verandah through glass-paned French Doors, the kitchen is a modern culinary hub with reams of crisp white cabinetry and a full suite of gleaming stainless-steel appliances. The bathroom has also undergone a full makeover and boasts toasty underfloor heating, a frameless glass-enclosed rain shower with herringbone-patterned wall tiling, and twin sinks in the chic vanity unit.
Of the 3 bedrooms, the largest is also the loveliest; positioned behind double sliders off the entry foyer, with expansive front garden views, BIRs, a fireplace with decorative domed brickwork, and exquisite ceiling detailing. The floor plan also incorporates a concealed laundry beside the powder room, attic storage with ladder access, and a secure single garage.
This is a very neighbourly pocket of Colonel Light Gardens, home to the magnificent Mortlock Park, where families flock to on weekends, and the Local Crowd café, a popular meeting spot that's literally up the street. This location also puts you within easy reach of hip eateries (like the all-new Panorama Hotel), shopping hubs (Pasadena Foodland and Mitcham Square), and coveted state and private schooling.
