Have an extended family, a blended family or just a big brood? If you need a lot of bedrooms and living space, this well-presented, established home in Yakamia will delight everyone.

It’s a two-storey, brick-and-tile building that’s ideally located for active families – within easy reach of good schools, a shopping centre and the CBD, and about two minutes’ walk to the North Road sports fields.

Tucked away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, the home sits on an elevated 754sqm block and enjoys expansive views towards the city and Mts Melville and Clarence from the living areas and a long balcony at the back.

The main entrance is via an impressive sheltered front deck, with cafe blinds and a wood-burning stove, guaranteeing cosy outdoor living and entertaining all year.

At the heart of the home is a sunny open living area of family room, dining space and kitchen, fitted with air conditioning and a big, centrally positioned wood-burning stove.

With modern cabinetry, a five-burner chef’s stove, dishwasher and pantry, the well-appointed kitchen incorporates natural timber features and shares the view.

Smart bamboo flooring flows throughout the living area and into the hallway, where a staircase leads to the lower level.

Downstairs, there’s a big, carpeted games or family room with a door to the back yard, making this ideal as a teens’ retreat or for family members to live independently.

In addition to the two living rooms, there are three bedrooms and one bathroom on each floor.
All six bedrooms are doubles, and some have built-in robes. The upper-floor bathroom, which has been renovated, includes a corner bath, shower and basin, and the toilet is separate. The downstairs bathroom is a tad dated but very serviceable, and includes a shower, vanity and toilet.

A walk-in storage room, a linen cupboard and a bench and shelving in the laundry are other considerations.

Lawns front and back provide secure play space for small children and pets, and there’s heaps of off-road parking. Gates at the side of the property lead to the fenced back yard, where there are two carports and plenty of room for big vehicles – or the caravan and boat. There’s even a chook run.

This property’s versatility, size and location make it an excellent buy in this price range, so discover its many attributes for yourself before someone else snaps it up.
