Property Description:
Over the past 12 months, we've completely "gutted" this property and renovated it to a high-standard more commonly found in classy metropolitan homes. It's now completed and a total country palace!
The block : The house itself is situated on a corner block of 1280sqm, is already connected to deep sewerage, and the block is fully sub-dividable. This means that the lucky buyer will have the option of either enjoying a large back garden ( plenty of room for a workshop, double gates at side provide access to rear ), or creating a vacant block which can then be sold. Both blocks would have their own street frontages, if subdivided.
The house & grounds : The house has a commanding street presence, and is on the "high side" of the road. It has a new rendered brick perimeter wall, with piers & railings enclosing the front garden. The driveway is enclosed with double gates in the same style as the railings. The back garden is enclosed by a new colourbond fence. The driveway is long enough to accommodate 3 cars ( or boat / caravan etc ) and in addition there is a fully-powered, free-standing garage .
The bedrooms : The master bedroom measures a massive 5m x 4m, has built-in robes with mirrored doors, and a high ceiling. The second bedroom is also a double room, measuring 3m x 4m. It too has a high ceiling, and built-in robes with mirrored doors. There are new ceiling fans in both these bedrooms. The 3rd bedroom is 5m x 2.3m and would be ideal as either a guest room or an office, as it overlooks the rear deck and patio. All bedrooms are freshly painted in neutral tones and have new carpet throughout.
The kitchen : A large area with plenty of storage space! We installed new cupboards, a quality rangehood, a large 5-burner oven / gas cook-top, island bench with sink & flick-mixer, brand new dishwasher and much more. Freshly painted, with new floor coverings it's just fantastic and overlooks the front garden. The cupboards were made to measure the existing 2-door stainless steel fridge, and as a result the fridge& dishwasher are included in the sale. High ceilings add to the space here.
The bathroom: Will rival anything you'll find in a 5-star hotel! Fully-tiled floor to ceiling, semi-framed glass shower screen and pivot-door, high quality vanity with granite top, porcelain WC, stainless steel towel rails, heat lamps, exhaust fan - you'll never want to come out!
The laundry : Masses of storage space - we built-in 2.0m cupboards right across the back and a broom closet. The washing machine and dryer fit perfectly under the new laundry bench and are both included in the sale. We also installed a brand new stainless-steel laundry trough & cabinet. The laundry looks out into the back garden.
The loungeroom: Another big room with a high ceiling! Measuring 4.6m x 4.8m it will comfortably accommodate a big screen TV and large furniture. We've kept the fireplace ( fan-forced, slow combustion wood heater ) but have built a mantle-piece and framed it all with travertine tiles - it looks a million dollars. Brand new carpets, freshly painted, new ceiling fan, this room just oozes comfort!
The dining room : There wasn't one - so we made one! Adjoining the kitchen, separated only by a half-height timber capped wall, the ideal area to entertain guests or simply read the paper. Looks out onto the rear deck and gets the morning sun..
The deck and the patio : We added a brand new 9m x 4.8m colorbond patio with a pitched roof, to the rear of the house. This covers the new jarrah deck and compliments the new roof that we put on the house perfectly. However, it is still only half of the outdoor entertaining area! The other half is a paved patio area ideal for family BBQ's!
The roof & downpipes: We removed all the old tiles and opted for a brand new colorbond roof on both the house and the garage. We re-battened the roof, had R3.5 insulation batts installed and arranged new downpipes too.
