Revamped in all aspects, this classic brick veneer opens up to reveal a stylish, contemporary dwelling indoors – one that young families will love.
The block of about 580 square metres has a good-sized backyard, with lawn and a couple of mature trees. Kids and pets will appreciate these attributes no end.
Crisp white wall paint and matte floor planks and large windows admitting streams of natural light underscore the modern feel all through, while new kitchen and bathroom are stylish affairs.
Adjoining the kitchen, the street-facing family-meals area sits under a raked plaster ceiling with exposed white-painted beams and has a split-system.
The sleek kitchen has 40mm waterfall-edge stone benches (including a brekkie bench under pendants), plenty of white cupboards, charcoal glass splashback and stainless-steel underbench oven and gas cooktop. A large window behind the sink allows views of the undercover alfresco area.
The three fitted bedrooms, each with floor planks and the main with split-system, share a lovely bathroom with grey and white full tiling, a smart vanity with good storage and an oval freestanding tub.
French doors from the hub open to the full-width covered deck blessed with a jacuzzi and enough spread-out space for family and friends when relaxing and entertaining.
This appealing property, with carport and garage, is 300 metres from St Paul’s Catholic School, with four more schools within two kilometres. Scenic Brimbank Park and Keilor Downs shopping centre are five minutes by car, while freeways and the airport are in easy reach.
