One street back from the waterfront and a walk away from train station and shops, this house on a premier tree-lined street is on the market for the first time since 1951. The singled-fronted period residence has been stylishly updated, with wide-format floorboards and crisp white wall paint, along with painted ceiling boards, and a kitchen-meals area with loads of architectural finesse. Two bedrooms are off the large entry foyer and share a smartly renovated bathroom. The lounge room in the centre of the house is bright and spacious. The modernised kitchen, with white cabinetry and soft-grey benchtops, has a dishwasher and electric cooker. The neat backyard (with secure parking access from back lane) has a good wedge of lawn and pittosporums. A split-system, monitored alarm system and botanical gardens at street’s end add further appeal.
