Situated within a highly sought-after pocket of New Town close to shops, services, and schools, this magnificent circa 1920s home has been remarkably renovated to suit modern living while retaining original period charm.

Open and light-filled, the living room, with central gas fireplace for year-round comfort, flows seamlessly into the dining, and in turn, to the kitchen, with high ceilings and polished timber flooring. A large timber deck brings the indoors out, with easy access from the kitchen. The contemporary culinary space boasts modern convenience at every turn with premium stainless-steel appliances and ample bench and cupboard room.

The modern residence has been futureproofed for up-to-date technology trends. A smart home, with LED lighting throughout, the ambience is able to be controlled in-home or remotely from devices.

Three generous bedrooms make up the quality accommodation, each featuring built-in wardrobes. The master bedroom contains an elegant en-suite, and main bathroom provides plenty of space in a stylish, grey-tiled setting. A separate laundry, with ample storage space, is nearby.

Outside, the fabulous entertaining deck is sheltered to allow for gatherings year-round, and the level and fully fenced yard is the perfect place for children and pets to play. The established grounds are low-maintenance, with a garden shed on-hand for outdoor care. The secure garage provides housing for one vehicle, with additional off-street space available within the driveway.

Filled with character and charm within a modern setting, this stunning family home with a delightful street presence in New Town offers high-quality comfort and easy living in a desirable location. #AtYourService
