In a popular enclave of Sunshine West, this Victorian-style residence has indoor features that support the era’s look, such as stepped cornices and rosettes on three-metre ceilings, deep skirts, picture and dado rails, and two-tone paintwork.
Wall paint is in various shades, setting the tone for each room, while cornices and trims are painted to match. Lovely floorboards are laid in most rooms, including bedrooms, while practical off-white tiles anchor the high-traffic areas. Windows come with either drapes or vertical blinds.
Four living areas are a bonus for any family who look for separation and hang-together spaces. They include open lounge and dining rooms, a casual meals area, and a family room (with built-in cabinetry) behind double doors.
The kitchen has a stack of white cabinetry, black granite-look benches, white splashback tiles and a big walk-in pantry, plus stainless-steel wall oven, electric cooktop and a single-drawer dishwasher. The large window behind the sink offers views of the alfresco area.
Two bedrooms are off the entry way, including the main which has a walk-in robe and ensuite. The other two fitted bedrooms are along a second hallway that’s shared with the laundry, separate toilet, and main bathroom with period styling including a clawfoot tub.
The family room opens to a massive covered alfresco area with brick-patterned pavers underfoot. It connects with the backyard which has a storage shed.
Also on offer are ducting heating and cooling, ducted vacuum, solar panels, and a drive-through remote-controlled double garage.
The property is within three-minute ambles of The Avenue shopping centre (anchored by Coles) and Gresham Way Reserve’s playground and barbecue facilities, while Ardeer South Primary School and Western Ring Road entry are in five-minute car trips.
