Inspection by Appointment

Originally beginning its life as a Californian bungalow, exquisite beauty can be found at every turn of this property that has been extended and upgraded over the years. A stunning leadlight door greets you as you enter an opulent foyer bathed in natural light, leading to the living space. High ceilings, picture rails, pendant lights and mantels adorn this unique home. Rooms of generous proportions from days gone by are an appealing luxury and a perfect backdrop to stylish d?cor and a collection of artworks.

The huge welcoming kitchen forms the heart of the home, featuring everything you could ask for: a walk-in pantry, tiled splashback, double sink, dishwasher and a large electric stove with gas hotplates. Plenty of space for casual dining and family chats here, in addition to the formal dining room, flowing off to the side. The layout is superb.

Keep toasty with a choice of wood and electric heating and there's a Sanden Heat Pump hot water system downstairs and separate system for upstairs. A heat transfer system redirects heat back downstairs and controls humidity.

Beautiful Tasmanian Oak stairs lead upstairs to the 1970s extension providing ample accommodation for the largest of extended families or potential to let rooms. Upstairs has its own kitchen, loungeroom, five bedrooms (or 4 and a study), large laundry and bathroom. The upstairs accommodation also has its own access at the back of the residence for anyone wanting that separation. What an asset!

Sandstone paths and walls grace the outside of this home, and the glorious garden regularly welcomes loads of birds. There's plenty of raised veggie gardens at the rear of the property, beautifully placed atop herringbone laid bricks, to grow your selection of choice. A courtyard and deck also make this the best spot for entertaining and privacy. Twinkling lights, tubs of plants and fish set a relaxed, beautiful space to enjoy for hours.

There are two garden sheds for extra storage and garden tools, and two gated crossover driveway entrances for ease of access, with several off street parking spaces available. There's even a mudroom by the back entrance for added convenience, after you've been gardening.

View of Kunanyi/Mount Wellington are enjoyed from the upstairs bedrooms of this property. Location is ideal for its proximity to excellent schools, hospitals, cafes, shopping and public transport. The local government school is almost across the road!

This residence would suit a discerning buyer looking for an elegant, substantial home with all the creature comforts, close to the city without too much yard to tend to. An inspection will be sure to delight viewers, and it's such a pleasure to bring this grand home to market.
