Share This Property
Looking for a hideaway home with a superb nature lifestyle right at your doorstep? Here it is! Situated just a two minute walk to the popular Anstey Hill recreation park with its wonderful bush walking trails, and surrounded by over half an acre of its own auto watered lush gardens, this delightful home will fit the bill and is the perfect place to ride out any future lock downs!
With its solid brick ranch style construction and colonial windows the home is nicely set back from the quiet street behind private fencing and a beautifully laid out low maintenance mostly native gardens which will be especially appreciated and enjoyed by those who value their privacy. Amazingly, this nature lovers paradise is just a one minute stroll to catch the bus to the city and a five minute drive to Tea Tree Plaza with all its facilities.
Inside, the home just oozes character. With a practical floor plan that offers 3 ample sized bedrooms (Master with ensuite) and timber robes and bedroom 3 with BIR's, two bathrooms and a study plus formal dining / living area and a large lounge / living room boasting a gorgeous picture window with a stunning view out over the botanic style rear gardens, you will feel right at home here. Once you settle into your lounge chair and appreciate the gorgeous outlook I promise it will be very hard to get back to everyday life.
Excellent North / South orientation of the home along with down lighting gives wonderful indoor lighting, and floating floors and earth toned tiles throughout provide a warm ambience reminiscent of a cottage hidden away in the hills somewhere. The large country style solid timber kitchen with adjacent meals area boasts quality European appliances, a built in pantry cupboard and plenty of other cupboard and bench space ensuring you will be well placed to enjoy your food preparation here, not to mention those family gatherings around the kitchen table. Cosy solid fuel combustion heating and adjacent gas wall heating coupled with ceiling fans and ducted air conditioning provides year round comfort throughout the home.
A solid brick fully detached plumbed "studio" room gives added flexibility to this home, and although perfect for the artist, hobbyist or home based worker, with its separate entry and plumbed in toilet and wash basin it would double equally well as another bedroom, perhaps perfect for a teenager looking for some independence. Of course it also provided great lock up storage. A lock up carport with room for two vehicles complements the ample off street parking in front of the carport gates.
The rear garden is amazing, with a "top" yard comprising a nice full width verandah and then an ample lawn area with adjacent camellias and hydrangeas that put on a superb display, then a lovely all weather pergola area before stepping down further to a "mid" yard with centrally positioned aviary and a neat double shed / workshop with power and built in shelving adjacent to another attractive shaded all weather BBQ area. The very "bottom" yard is something of a secret garden, and a superb place for children to explore. It comprises a brick paved walkway to an area of mostly native plants surrounding a small creek that mostly just trickles through during the winter months. This area provides great habitat for small native animals and lots of birds that enjoy an occasional free feed up at the top garden when the owners are so inclined.
This home has that special character that is generally only found in hills or country environments. To find this lifestyle so centrally located is rare, so ensure that you get a chance to view it open inspection.
