First time offered; this gorgeous residence radiates happiness having been home to three generations of the same family since it was built in 1929. With its bungalow façade and cheerful, character-filled interiors, it promises to be a joyful place for the next family to make treasured memories. As you would expect of a home of this vintage, it is ready for some modern updates, although it's been so well looked after you could easily move in today. And with an 872.6 sqm landholding and R3 Medium Density zoning, there is plenty of room to extend if it's more accommodation you need, or even consider multiple dwellings (both subject to council approval). A delightful north facing verandah introduces the home, the perfect spot to sit year round and enjoy just the right amount of sunshine. Typical of the era, rooms are all generous in size with some adorned with beautiful ornate plaster ceilings, and possibly timber floors under the carpet. Separate lounge and dining rooms anchor three bedrooms and the bathroom, while offering effortless flow into the retro electric-fitted kitchen. A sunroom, plus two utility rooms under the home are flexible areas able to be a home office, gym or for handy storage. Nestled behind a high brick fence for privacy, the property sits to the front of the block surrounded by beautiful gardens, where it's clear someone with a green thumb has weaved their magic. A single garage ties the bow. Convenience is assured, with St Kevin's Primary School and bus stops on the doorstep, and Cardiff train station little more than 250m away. You will find a great choice of supermarkets, local shops, cafes, and medical facilities all within walking distance too, and when the weekend comes around you can be strolling the Lake Macquarie foreshore in just seven minutes or Newcastle city centre in under 20. - Classic bungalow style home on north facing 872.6 sqm block with R3 zoning - Approx. block dimensions of 21.69m / 20.12m X 39.55m / 47.68m - Air-conditioned lounge room with beautiful ornate plaster ceiling - Open plan dining and retro electric-equipped kitchen with new split system A/C and working fireplace - Three classically proportioned bedrooms, two with built-in robes - Older style bathroom with shower over bath, second w/c on verandah, and shower downstairs - Laundry and two versatile utility rooms under the home - Double gates open onto driveway and single lock-up garage - 650m to Cardiff supermarkets, 5km to John Hunter Hospital - Steps to St Kevin's Primary, 700m to Cardiff North Public, 1.7km to Cardiff High Outgoings: Council rates: $473.10 approx. per quarter Water Rates: $272.37 approx. per quarter ***Health & Safety Measures are in Place for Open Homes & All Private Inspections Disclaimer: All information contained herein is gathered from sources we deem reliable.
