A Big House, An Even Bigger View
The entry level alone is impressively substantial, with a big kitchen, two generous living spaces, the master suite and a further bedroom all on the one level - plus scope to easily create a fifth bedroom if ever needed. Beautiful timber floors, a sleek fireplace and walls of glass give the home loads of 60s and 70s character. But it's as you move towards the rear that the view increasingly takes over, before the house opens onto an enormous full-length covered deck - and suddenly you can't help but picture morning coffees, long Sunday lunches and evenings watching the light change over Mount Coot-tha.
Downstairs effectively adds another home's worth of space. A proper second kitchen anchors substantial living and dining areas, with a further two large bedrooms, bathroom with new bath and separate media room completing what could very easily be used as its own independent granny flat. Large glass doors open onto a full-length covered patio, where fabulous crazy paving, the garden and that same leafy outlook give this level a character all of its own.
Fresh paint throughout and a number of thoughtful recent updates mean there's nothing you need to do before moving in, while plenty of the home's original personality remains. And outside, the same sense of generosity continues across the fully fenced 1,042sqm block, with a substantial backyard and more than enough room to add a pool without sacrificing the garden.
Peaceful, elevated and wonderfully green, yet with three schools, public transport and the centre of Kenmore all within easy walking distance, it's difficult to imagine a more convenient location for a home of this scale. Homes offering this much in such a convenient Kenmore position are incredibly hard to find, and we expect interest to be strong. Be quick to view and make your offer - this one is unlikely to wait around.
