Nostalgic elements of a bygone era blend tastefully with modernity, in this character weatherboard north facing home in a leafy neighbourhood. Enjoying the cachet of an upmarket address and a few minutes' walk to village and beach with Dingle Dell close by, the prettily landscaped property would be ideal for a growing family.
Leadlight windows, native timber floors, and high stud panelled ceilings complement interconnected living spaces on the main floor. A formal sitting room has a cosy Jetmaster fireplace while the dining area with urban outlook has, and will be, the setting for memorable dinner parties. Next door a warm and elegant family room features another fireplace and archetypal bay window. At the rear of the home, a colossal designer kitchen, curated for foodies, boasts black granite benchtops, sleek appliances including bar fridge, and masses of storage. Two banks of French doors connect to the massive pergola covered deck screened for privacy by foliage and perfect for barbecues, open air dining or just lazing about in the sun. Four bedrooms are divided over two floors with one accessing the deck also. The main bedroom is upstairs and has a walk-in closet. The classically styled bathroom is shared between two while downstairs the family version is a fetching black and white tiled version with vintage-look fittings and separate toilet adjacent to a laundry. A versatile utility room with exterior doors is currently a gym but could be a home-based office or clinic. A combination of a ducted heating and cooling system and individual heat pumps ensures year-round comfort and warmth.
A huge basement includes storage and ancillary rooms along with a second huge laundry while there's parking on the front forecourt for two or three cars. The 443 sqm (approx.) freehold property sits in a central position zoned St Heliers and St Ignatius Schools and is handy to bus transport for a city commute.
