An extensive renovation project has transformed this smart 1950s home into a modern, inviting and sunny place to be proud of - and it still has character in spades.Another great thing about owning a home of this era is the big blocks they occupy - this one is on a massive 1,037sqm (quarter acre) with a fully fenced back yard for the new owners to park big vehicles, grow veggies, plant fruit trees or even play cricket.Original features such as high ceilings with ornate cornices and ceiling roses have been retained in the renovations, yet a new kitchen and bathroom have brought it bang up to date.Finished with fresh decor in tones of dove grey and white inside and new exterior paintwork in classic ivory, it also incorporates well-chosen modern touches such as a glass panel front door, practical vinyl plank flooring throughout, and quality night-and-day blinds at all windows.The main living room has light streaming in from two sides, and air conditioning, as well as a wood fire. Glass doors open onto the back yard and there's a covered, paved patio for sheltered entertaining and barbies.Around the corner from the living room is the sleek white kitchen with heaps of cabinetry, a chef's five-burner gas stove and a recess for the fridge-freezer.The king-sized master bedroom has windows on two walls, the second bedroom is a double and the third is a good-sized single with a glazed door onto the patio.Attractive feature tiling sets off the new bathroom, complete with a walk-in shower, kids' bath, toilet and vanity.Another drawcard is the big double-bay shed with high-clearance roller doors in the back yard and heaps of parking space.With all amenities close by and town only six minutes away, the property is ideally located for all types of buyers.Its appeal will be as strong for tenants as for owner-occupiers, so it also has the potential to be a sound addition to an investment portfolio.What you need to know:- Extensively renovated character home- Some original features - 1,037sqm block - Sunny open living space with air conditioning and wood fire- Meals area- New white kitchen with chef's stove and plenty of cabinetry- Undercover patio- King-sized master bedroom- Two family bedrooms - one double, one single- New bathroom with shower, toilet, vanity and kids' bath- Vinyl plank flooring, night-and-day blinds, fresh decor- Double-bay shed with high-clearance doors- Fenced back yard with lawn and garden area- Near family amenities, six minutes from town- Perfect first home or rental investment- Council rates $1,743.09- Water rates $1,463.15
