This house has been owned by the one family since it was built and sits on a large block (about 766 square metres) with a wide side-drive, opening up the possibility of a multi-dwelling investment opportunity (STCA).
The park across the street has provided plenty of memories of children rushing across to meet with friends for the vendor’s family, and as new families move in, this could be what’s in store for the new owners.

The gardens are established and tendered to with care. The manicured lawn in the backyard is beautifully maintained and edged.
Within, everything is polished and maintained to as-new standards.
The lounge room has a split-system air-conditioning unit, grey carpeting and receives great light. A wall-mounted gas furnace as well as ducted heating keeps the climate cosy.
The meals area beyond leads to the kitchen with loads of cupboard and bench space, and a view of the backyard.
All three bedrooms are carpeted and have built-in robes. They are generous in size and again, have great light thanks to the large windows typical of the period.
A powder room for guests plus a generous laundry, a carport and separate brick garage for one car with further room for storage are great inclusions.
In the backyard there is an under-cover paved barbecue area, a large storage shed and a chicken coop in the corner.
Two large orange trees are full of fruit. There’s also a thriving feijoa. The spring flowers are in full bloom in the established garden.
The property is in a fantastic spot, just a relaxed 15-minute stroll to St Albans train station and the many shops and cafes that surround the area.
It is also close to Victoria University, St Albans Secondary College and St Albans Primary School.
Here is a house that has been much loved, one you can call a home.
