Last Listing description (December 2018)

Located in a peaceful avenue in a prime pocket of Kennington, an immaculate, yet easy to maintain garden including a gorgeous paved pathway and stone retaining walls make a wonderful first impression.
Stepping up onto the landing and through the front door you are greeted with an entryway of stunning polished hardwood floors and onto a bedroom, complete with built in robe. The master bedroom then follows with a built in dressing table and mirror, walk-in-robe and access trough to a cleverly designed semi-ensuite with shower. This flows onto a separate toilet and bathroom with a shower over bath and vanity which can also be accessed from the main hallway.
A study which could be utilised as a formal lounge, or kids activity room adds another layer of versatility to the home, as well as another two spacious bedrooms which both include built-in-robes and are all accessible just off the main hallway.

The kitchen, dining and living area is filled with natural light and views over the tranquil back garden. The kitchen has everything a cook could desire with ample bench and cupboard space and a sizeable pantry. The dining area offers plenty of room for a large family table and leads onto a generously sized, carpeted lounge room that showcases exposed ceiling trusses and can be closed off from the kitchen and dining area with timber bi-fold doors. Timber skirting boards and window architraves as well as stained glass room dividers add plenty of character and charm to the home.
Stairs from the kitchen lead down to a large and welcoming back yard that includes an established vegetable garden, fruit trees and chook pen allowing you to produce your own food, as well as a timber rotunda complete with a wood fired pizza oven perfect for entertaining guests. A gate also provides direct access to a children s playground where you can literally sit in the back yard while watching the kids enjoy themselves.
