With the New Year comes fresh opportunities, including living in a bigger house such as this one.
Remember the days of backyard cricket and frisbee? Kids of today don’t necessarily share these pastimes due to the common constraints of smaller yards, but they can at this property which has 883 square-metres on which to run amok.
Inside has a warm, homely feel with floating floorboards in the lounge-dining room and the four bedrooms, including the main with walk-in wardrobe. And red walls add some spunk to this bedroom and lounge-dining room.
A renovated, crisp white, fully tiled bathroom is sure to appeal with its shower over spa arrangement.
The tiled family-meals zone with split-system provides more room to entertain and the large kitchen has plenty of space to cater to the masses; it has
a 900mm stainless-steel cooker and a dishwasher, and oodles of glossy white cupboards with glass panels. A skylight ensures floods of natural light.
Features are ducted heating and high ceilings.
A sliding door from the family hub leads to an undercover area with paving underfoot. Beyond this is a suburban paradise of palm trees, ferns and yuccas with rocks dotted around.
A barbecue, remote-controlled double car port, shed, paved driveway, water tank and Colorbond fence are back here. And a bungalow adds plenty of options.
The corner block is within a walk of Stevensville Primary school and Victoria University’s Brimbank campus – giving the kids one less reason to be late for class.
Jamieson Street and Cyril Clements reserves are nearby, as are Westvale Community Centre, eateries and St Albans train station.
