If you judge this property from the street verge you might be lulled into thinking that it’s not a family home but an inspection of the interior will certainly allay that impression.

This 1960s double brick and tile home has a roomy lounge off the front entry hall and an arch through to an almost as roomy formal dining room.

The central part of the house has a clean kitchen with gas stove, breakfast bar separating it from a meals nook which returns to cosy family area ideal for setting up the kids Wii and computers. A Bushman slow combustion room heater warms this open plan area in winter.

Shift workers shouldn’t have their sleep interrupted by other family members as the bedrooms are all separate from one another; bedroom 3 is toward the front near the entry hall, bedroom 2 is off to the side near the bathroom and the main bedroom is at the back of the house. It has an ensuite bathroom with spa and one wall complete with built in robes.

Steps down from the family room lead to an enclosed games area – a great place to setup a pool table or just some old sofas and second TV. The property has two hot water units; an instantaneous gas for the ensuite and 50L electric for the rest of the house, has ducted evaporative air conditioning and several ceiling fans.

The block size is huge; 1 324m2 and features a semi-detached carport long enough for 2 cars, a garden shed and double garden shed with power and concrete floor. The house is perfectly located for families with older kids at school as it’s on the doorstep of Northam Senior High School and CY O’Connor College of TAFE.
