Character-rich and significantly extended to accommodate every requirement of modern family living, this beautifully balanced 4 bedroom plus study Californian Bungalow showcases a range of sunlit and stylish shared areas. Beyond the home’s traditional facade, enjoy seamless indoor/outdoor flow with a masterful sense of space, light and style.

Providing an eye-catching presence in a street celebrated for period excellence, the home welcomes guests under high ceilings with original hardwood flooring underfoot. A pair of versatile rooms branch off from a main hallway with a formal lounge featuring integrated cabinetry and an ornamental open fireplace, while a large study has the flexibility to work as a fifth bedroom or a perfectly private formal dining room.

The sprawling layout offers privacy and retreat for the whole family. A newer extension to the rear provides casual entertaining or every day relaxation showcasing light-filled living and dining spaces around a granite-topped kitchen. Two bedrooms serviced by a luxe bathroom pay close attention-to-detail with massive custom-built robes boasting ample storage.

Entertaining on a grand scale will become second nature with effortless flow outdoors. A north-facing alfresco dining area is delightfully vine-draped, while a nearby, built-in BBQ is a clever inclusive touch. The outdoor showpiece is an enticing solar-heated pool surrounded by an expansive bluestone terrace. Framed by privacy hedges, enjoy a truly indulgent lifestyle of poolside entertainment.

Faithfully renovated, all of the period features on display add value including intricate timber fretwork, a wide verandah, ornate open fireplaces, exquisite leadlight windows, cornice craftsmanship, period light fittings and an alluring dormer window rising from the roof-line. Special features include a secure alarm system, heating and cooling throughout and off-street parking on a sizeable 555sqm (approx.) parcel of land.
