Whichever choice you make, this amazing statuesque and solid home, aptly named "Tranquility", has all the foundations and style befitting the quality and history of homes surrounding it. Yes, it could easily be modernised over time or before you move in, but small improvements such as polishing the Tasmanian Oak floorboards that have been hidden beneath the older carpet, a repaint and new drapes would make a huge difference to the immediate feel of this 1950's Post War architecture residence that has been called home to the one family for the 56 past years. From the moment you walk through the front gate, the 1,000sqsm plus of fabulous grounds showcase glimpses of what family say, resembled botanic gardens, that still simmer beneath the foliage you now see. It needs a new family to give it some loving attention, regular watering and fresh energy to bring it back to its former glory. This incredible home is oozing potential both inside and out...with options to convert existing spaces into bathrooms, open and modernise the kitchen/dining area....make use of the existing lift linking upstairs to down as an option to the stairs...or extend out onto the existing patio upstairs, your imagination is limited by your budget and needs! Outside there's even room for an inground swimming pool without compromising the actual lawned areas or the fabulous carparking facilities. Designed for a family who loved entertaining, this property provided the idyllic setting for five children to grow up while being conveniently close to everything needed on a daily basis - buses, a selection of reputable private and public schools within walking distance and the city less than 10 minutes drive away! The New Town Nursery and the New Town Shopping Plaza are both just down the road and are an easy walk! The location couldn't be more idyllic. This is a property you could easily call "home" for another 56 years, modernised to suit your individual style and decor of course! The size of the rooms throughout are what you would expect for it's post war era. The three bedrooms upstairs are huge, while the fourth bedroom fits a single bed or a study desk. The multiple living areas and large blackwood kitchen downstairs make entertaining easy. There is a toilet on each level and currently one bathroom upstairs, with plenty of space to add in another to suit. The more recent addition of an internal lift between upstairs and down has made access easy between each level when stairs are not an option. The double carport in addition to the separate single garage provides ample under-cover parking in addition to the extra off-street space. A piece of history is the water-powered clothesline, ingenious in it's design and certainly very functional even today. Light, bright, and welcoming, the home can comfortably host dinner parties in the formal dining room that naturally spills out into all the wonderful living spaces downstairs and out to the covered rear patio overlooking distant mountain views and the tranquil garden setting. "Tranquility" is now looking for a new family to call this stately home their own! Ready to move in to with ample space to reside in and modernise each room over time, this is an unique opportunity to buy in this exclusive enclave, make improvements that will bring this already stately home into the new age while retaining the exterior grandeur and street presence. Enjoy the sense of privacy and safety that comes with living in such an established neighbourhood, yet be so close to the everyday conveniences in life.
