Details to delight

If a property could have a sunny disposition then this single-fronted Victorian would surely have one.

A cream and white picket fence, mature shady tree and bright red front door create a cheery welcome to the house which is ideal for a small family or couple wanting extra space.

Little details such as the address in frosted glass atop the front door, high ceilings, old-fashioned light switches and original fireplaces, along with intricate ceilings and polished timber floors, make for an appealing interior.

The wide hallway has a decorative archway and skylight for maximum light.

Off here is the main bedroom with chic grey-blue walls, plantation shutters, and two sets of built-in wardrobes either side a fireplace.

Further down the hall is the second bedroom with built-in wardrobe and shelving and the same grey-blue walls.

A door at the end of the hall opens to a lovely bright lounge room with black fireplace and feature mirror.

The stylish modern bathroom with sliding door, shower over a corner spa, a wooden-topped vanity with bowel basin and sash window is down a second hallway.

Opposite are three storage cupboards for linen, pantry items and to hide laundry facilities.

A family-meals and kitchen takes up the back of the house with room on one side for a large dining table.

The kitchen has plenty of underbench and overhead cabinets, a stainless-steel Omega oven and cook-top, dishwasher and microwave nook.

Stylish french doors with holland blinds open out to a large deck which creates a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor living.

The lush north-facing backyard, made private by fences and high shrubs, offers scope to extend (subject to council approval).

There is lawn for the children to play on and room for a sandpit, a garden shed and established garden beds.

A side access provides more room for pot plants.

This lovely property is within easy reach of schools, the station, Williamstown beach and The Strand.
