Offered to market for the first time in almost 50 years, this property is scheduled for auction to facilitate the owner’s move to aged care.

Imagine family life on a sprawling 653sqm, tucked in an exclusive cul-de-sac of total tranquillity. Wake each morning to a magnificent green bushland backdrop, knowing that you are just footsteps from scenic walking trails that wind through miles of protected forest.

Move straight into this rock-solid 1970’s home, enjoying two levels of exceptional space and versatility. Featuring fresh paintwork and beautifully repolished hardwood floors, the elevated main living areas offer a welcoming ambiance filled with natural northern light and cool easterly breezes.

Relax in the air-conditioned comfort of its open-plan family spaces, or delight in a little wildlife spotting as you entertain on one of the level’s two covered alfresco balconies. Retreat to the privately positioned bedroom wing, where all three generous built-in rooms capture bright, leafy outlooks through oversized windows.

The kitchen and bathroom remain in largely original condition but are very serviceable, well configured, and offer outstanding scope to personalise and add value to the home.

Endless opportunities are also presented by the home’s huge ground level. A brilliant multipurpose space will make the perfect games/rumpus/media room or second living area. Boasting access to its own bathroom and a separate entrance, it would equally serve as the ultimate teenager/guest retreat or private home office/business premises. Or, easily add a kitchenette to the huge plumbed level to transform it into fully self-contained accommodations (dual-living).

Outside, vast rear lawns are bordered by native bushes, brightly coloured florals, edible citrus and veggie gardens. Simply fence the yard to allow children and pets to run freely or utilise the rare space and excellent side access to add a swimming pool or new entertaining deck.

Additional property highlights include multiple reverse cycle air-conditioning units; brand new ceiling fans throughout; security/insect screens; the large spotless kitchen with modern electric cooking and breakfast bar; huge laundry with direct garden access; water tank; and an enormous double integrated garage with remote access and storage/workshop space.

Whether you decide to enjoy the home as-is, or work with its period charm for a further contemporary renovation you cannot overcapitalise on this beautiful block with Whites Hill Reserve views from both levels. Plus, when the time is right, you have the option to remove the existing home and build a brand-new luxury residence*, following the lead of so many in this coveted enclave.

Bordering prestigious Camp Hill, this address is just 7km from the CBD and a short stroll from bus stops, sporting fields and a great local restaurant. Less than 5 minutes to Westfield Carindale with its fresh food grocers, cafes, retail and cinemas, it also enjoys easy access a choice of state and private schools (including St Martin’s Primary and San Sisto College), childcare/kindergartens, Camp Hill Marketplace (with Woolworths supermarket and boutiques), and arterial roads connecting with the Airport, Bay and Coast.
