Built around 1945, this appealing, solid brick home is situated on a lovely regular allotment of approximately 868m2 (18.29 x 46.94m ). Emily Street is a quiet, tree lined street on the boundary of Clapham and Lower Mitcham and provides easy access to schools, transport, shops and the Repat.
A family has known and enjoyed this property over many years and lots of stories can be told. It is in fairly original condition and although there has been a little upgrading, there is opportunity here to purchase an affordable property and add your own touches.
It is a handsome house with its warm coloured bricks, tiled roof, sheltered front portico and side patio and the curved path and driveway are flanked by established gardens with small stone retainer walls, adding to its character and charm.
The front door opens to a wide entrance hall with access to the formal lounge which has a rendered fireplace and mantelpiece, decorative ceiling, corner windows and reverse cycle air conditioning.
The kitchen has an abundance of cupboards and the adjacent dining area opens to the side patio.
There are two double bedrooms, both with built in robes and cupboards and the sleep out area was used as a third bedroom. This more recently has been used as a playroom or study and is quite a big space. Beneath the sleep out is a large room which in years past was used as a workshop and steps led down from the cement floor outside the laundry. This storage area, cellar or room could also be accessed from the outside if necssary.
The bathroom is neat and offers full size bath, separate shower alcove and vanity. The toilet is separate.
It is a fantastic back yard with a huge elm tree spreading its branches over the back lawn and creating welcome shade in the summer, veggie gardens and a shade house.
A craft room is located behind the garage and there is a high, double length carport in front of the garage.
This property will be going to auction on July 25th at 11am. Don’t miss out on this one – it’s a great investment in a much sought after area.
