Every now and then, a well-established family home comes along that truly stands apart, and this is one of them. Nestled in the sought-after suburb of Kennington, this property offers a serene environment where birdsong fills the air, yet local shops remain within walking distance. Carefully maintained and sympathetically renovated to preserve its vintage charm, this home blends character with modern convenience.
Positioned on a shady corner block, the property boasts a circular driveway leading through to Ningana Drive, ensuring effortless guest parking. Designed in a classic ranch style, a full-length front veranda sits behind an established garden, offering privacy from the road. Inside, the living spaces feature striking exposed brickwork, including stylish brick archways that are right on trend.
The home provides two distinct living zones, each offering a unique experience. The formal L-shaped lounge at the front of the house is carpeted, overlooking the front garden and finished with quality drapes, sheer curtains, pelmets, and a gas heater. In contrast, the family living area features stunning timber flooring, with the dining space framed by floor-to-ceiling windows and a sliding door that opens to the lush outdoor entertaining area.
The nearby kitchen has been beautifully renovated, showcasing timeless blackwood timber cabinetry, double Neff ovens, a Baumatic microwave, a five-burner Baumatic gas cooktop, and a Miele dishwasher. A walk-in pantry with custom cabinetry adds extra convenience. Adjacent to the kitchen, a large study includes an in-built desk and ample storage.
All bedrooms are located in the west wing of the home. Bedrooms two, three, and four feature carpet, quality drapes with pelmets and sheer curtains, two-door built-in robes, and individual electric panel heating. These rooms are serviced by a renovated three-piece family bathroom, while a separate toilet offers dual access from both the bathroom and laundry. The master suite, also carpeted, is complemented by quality drapes, a ceiling fan, and a walk-through robe leading to a private three-piece ensuite. Blackwood timber cabinetry enhances the ensuite, bathroom, and laundry, which is thoughtfully designed with an inset sink, under-bench cupboards, and a double full-length storage cupboard.
A charming ornamental grapevine drapes over the open pergola, creating a picturesque setting for the paved outdoor entertaining area, which is seamlessly accessed from the dining space. Towards the rear of the property, additional shedding and workspace provide fantastic versatility. A converted carport now serves as a home office, complete with carpet, a split system, a ceiling fan, and a glass sliding door to the front, complemented by an external Colorbond gate for added security.
Two substantial brick sheds offer excellent storage solutions for tradespeople, car enthusiasts, or hobbyists. The first measures approximately 5.5m x 8.8m, while the second is around 8.6m x 8.8m, with an internal access door connecting them. Both sheds feature concrete flooring, power, roller doors, and a deep driveway entrance from Ningana Drive. A small garden shed sits beside a productive veggie patch with a watering system.
This impressive home is further enhanced by a solar system, and security cameras, ensuring a comfortable and secure lifestyle in a prime location.
