Property listing ID: 940576
Elevated, sun-drenched and overlooking leafy Glendowie, this solid 1960s home is a fantastic launchpad for family life in the Bays. Warm, light-filled and wonderfully practical, it offers the ease of single-level living, excellent indoor-outdoor flow and sought-after school zones — perfectly move-in ready, while still offering plenty of scope to make it your own. Built in brick with distinctive horizontal timber accents, the home retains its mid-century character while benefiting from extensive improvements by the current owners over the past 17 years. At its heart is bright, open-plan living, with a crisp white kitchen, freshly painted interiors, new timber flooring and generous windows across four aspects drawing in natural light throughout the day. Four bedrooms provide excellent flexibility, complemented by a family bathroom, separate second toilet and full laundry. Everything is in place to simply move in and enjoy, with genuine opportunity for the next owners to enhance, personalise and add further value over time. Bifold doors connect the main living area directly to the outdoors, where a large deck runs the length of the home. Elevated, north-facing and bathed in sunshine, the fully fenced grounds offer a wonderful blank canvas. Create the ultimate children’s play area, establish beautiful gardens, explore the potential for a pool, or add louvres over the deck to create an all-weather outdoor living and entertaining zone. The fourth bedroom adds another layer of versatility. With its own entrance and adjoining storeroom, there is potential to reconfigure the space into a generous primary suite with an ensuite and walk-in wardrobe, or utilise it as a work-from-home space, guest accommodation or additional living area. Positioned on a beautiful, tree-lined street in established Glendowie, the location is hard to beat. Glendowie School, St Ignatius Catholic School and Glendowie College are all within easy reach, with Sacred Heart College also close by. The single-level layout will appeal to families and downsizers alike, while the property’s most recent Healthy Homes assessment in 2020 adds further appeal for investors. Character, sunshine, space and exciting future potential — 60 Pembroke Crescent is an exceptional opportunity for one lucky new owner to secure their place in the Bays.
