Beautifully presented and rich in character, this charming Californian Bungalow offers a rare combination of period charm, thoughtful refurbishment and convenient downtown living. Just a short stroll from the shops and waterfront, this much loved home has been lovingly restored by the current owners, who have invested an enormous amount of time and energy into preserving its original features while creating a comfortable and all abilities home.
Refurbished in 2010, the property has been comprehensively updated, including restumping, rewiring, replumbing and reroofing, while retaining the character and craftsmanship of the era.
The welcoming front verandah leads to impressive double entry doors and a formal entrance featuring beautiful timber paneling and polished hardwood timber floors. The elegant formal lounge at the front of the home showcases high ceilings and an ornate ceiling rose, while these beautiful period features continue throughout the home, creating a wonderful sense of timeless character and charm.
At the heart of the home, the open plan living and dining area provides a relaxed space for everyday living and entertaining, flowing seamlessly to the rear deck with ramp for easy access.
The well appointed kitchen features quality Redgum cabinetry, a walk-in pantry, dishwasher and electric cooking, combining practicality with the warmth of natural timber.
The master bedroom is thoughtfully designed for accessibility and has an ensuite. Two further bedrooms are serviced by the bathroom/laundry, providing comfortable accommodation for family or guests.
A rose garden with a charming arbour enhances the home’s character. Dual driveways provide excellent access, while the substantial 7m x 4.5m garage and separate 7m x 4.5m workshop offer exceptional space for vehicles, hobbies, storage or projects.
A home of genuine character, substance and practicality, this delightful Californian Bungalow is perfectly positioned for those seeking a convenient lifestyle within easy walking distance of the town centre and waterfront.
