Owners looking for a house in mint condition, but with the flexibility to inject their own touch in the garden, will be enamoured with this gem.
Recently painted and with a resurfaced and resprayed roof, this modernised weatherboard retains period features including decorative cornices and picture rails.
Surrounded by similarly well-maintained properties in a quiet patch of Yarraville, the pale blue and slate tones of the house and matching picket fence provide a pleasant street frontage.
Low-maintenance gardens include healthy lawn and designated garden beds providing a clean slate for new owners to plant their favourites and inject some colour.
Merbau decking front and back is a stylish addition, while inside, Tasmanian Oak floorboards feature throughout most of the house.
Downlights and roman blinds feature in two good-sized bedrooms — one with built-in wardrobe and shelving. The main has wall-to-wall, floor-to-ceiling wardrobes.
They share a main bathroom with linen cupboard, large shower, deep bath, soft stone coloured wall tiles and grey tiled splashback. Two sets of white bi-fold doors open to a European-style laundry with space for a dryer, washing machine and tub.
The open-plan living areas are lovely and bright thanks to plenty of large windows with holland blinds.
A pantry, stone benchtops, and stainless-steel appliances including a 900mm cooktop, rangehood and dishwasher are highlights of the kitchen. A soft grey tiled splashback blends well with the white drawers and cupboards. It looks over a dining room which has two sets of french doors, one leading to the bedrooms, the other to a lounge room.
A paved area at the back has plenty of potential to become a large entertainment zone while a garden shed is an added convenience. There is off-street parking with a long driveway (partially undercover) divided by a wooden gate.
Close to recreational reserves, shops, shops and transport, this charming house is one to keep in mind.
