Spacious gem, renovated with quality inclusions, in a great location near shops and school!

Ideally positioned facing north, this freshly renovated home is situated in a superb location for the family, being only steps to Kingsford Smith super school, oval, free tennis and basketball courts opposite, on the bus route, as well as just a short walk to all the shops, restaurants, club and professional suites at Kippax Fair!

The home has excellent street appeal, complemented by a rendered finish, new front door and neat lawns. It has been comprehensively renovated throughout, with neutral white decor, and brand new kitchen and bathrooms.

There is plenty of room for everyone, with separate living areas, four spacious bedrooms, including a segregated master with ensuite, study and rumpus. There is a double attached garage and enough space at the side of the home for a caravan, boat and trailer.

It is a delight to step into the large formal lounge/dining, freshly decorated and bathed in light from the north aspect, the glass door and full length windows inviting sunlight to pour in over the cooler months, and there is double glazing throughout the entry level. A reverse cycle air conditioner and gas wall heater ensure comfort year round. There is a completely private outlook from formal living areas and the master bedroom.

Stylish, double glass panelled doors provide an open plan flow to the casual living area, with a brand new kitchen, showcasing a huge area of stone benchtop with breakfast bar, stone splashback, premium European appliances and a pantry.

A study or home office leads down to a spacious rumpus, featuring a cosy slow combustion fireplace, honeycomb blinds and a door to the rear garden.

Full of light, the segregated master bedroom features three built-in robes, a new reverse cycle air conditioner and a brand new ensuite with heated towel rail and underfloor heating.

A bespoke timber staircase leads to two spacious bedrooms on the upper level with new wool carpet, the second offering an air conditioner and built-in robe, the third a Juliet balcony and storage on the landing. Honeycomb blinds furnish all bedrooms, study and rumpus.

A fourth bedroom is adjacent to the study on the living level and the new main bathroom, which offers a bath and a shower, heated towel rail and underfloor heating.

Outdoor entertaining is well catered for with a paved area sheltered by a pergola and an open area behind the garage, which could also be used as additional parking.

There is internal access to the oversized brick double garage, fitted with auto doors and a rear roller door. There are two garden sheds, one of these particularly large. Gardens are easy care and the rear garden is safely enclosed for children and pets.

A wonderful family home, within a short stroll of Kippax Fair centre, soon to be upgraded, and offering a wide choice of shops, cafes, club and medical services.
