A modernised character home with family sized proportions
**PLEASE NOTE: A CONTRACT WILL NOT BE ISSUED PRIOR TO AN INSPECTION OF THE PROPERTY**
Enjoying a handsome street presence set behind a beautifully manicured hedge periphery and established gardens, the original 1926 cottage has been thoughtfully and seamlessly extended to become a wonderfully modern family home positioned on a 1215 sqm parcel of land.
The home maintains much of its original character including high ceilings, picture rails, sash windows, a fireplace, terracotta roof tiles and full brick construction with stucco rendering.
The striking kitchen is the centerpiece of the home and features a freestanding 900mm oven with a gas cooktop, a large porcelain sink, an elegant mosaic tiled splash back, masses of stone work surfaces including a large breakfast bar, with pendant lighting above and excellent storage. The kitchen includes a fully functioning butler's pantry with an additional oven.
The kitchen separates the opulent formal sitting room at the front of the home, which has a slow combustion fireplace and the large informal living room adjoining the kitchen. The informal living room is spacious and enjoys an abundance of light via the north facing French doors which open directly to the private rear garden.
The accommodation consists of three generous bedrooms and a study in the original wing of the home, which are serviced by a modern renovated bathroom with a separate tub and a semi frameless shower. There is also a separate toilet.
The segregated master bedroom, located in its own wing of the home, is palatial in size and enjoys a northerly aspect and an ensuite bathroom. In this wing also is a versatile study that can double as a bedroom. These rooms enjoy a wonderful relationship with the richly planted garden.
Other modern additions to the home are a 9.9KW roof mounted solar system (28 panels) with a 9KW battery, an enclosed double lock up carport with an automatic door, under floor electric heating throughout the new part of the residence and upgraded electrical wiring. There is also a sparkling saltwater inground pool, with an electric heat pump for extended use throughout the year. In addition, there is exceptional internal and external storage facilities, which include large garden sheds.
Positioned on the doorstep of excellent public transport routes and conveniently located to the fabulous Campbell shops, Campbell Primary and High schools and near C5 Precinct, Russell Offices, Lake Burley Griffin and the CBD, an inspection is highly recommended
