Embracing a vibrant lifestyle with Croydon North Shopping Plaza only a short stroll away (200m approx.), this home is characterised by its style and functionality introduced by a contemporary reviving of spaces all behind a beautifully rendered and stacked-stone exterior. A warm and welcoming ambience is realised upon entry into the lounge where a blending of warm greys and off whites allow for the timber floors to take centre stage. Combined with the high ceilings, it creates a greater amount of volume with the overall result providing a roomy and arresting living area. A large bay window invites lashings of natural light and is itself a showpiece of admiration, as are the double-hung windows throughout, retaining some of the original character and charm of the home. The use of stainless steel appliances brings balance to the kitchen, with updated appliances including electric oven and cooktop, in addition to an as-new dishwasher, together lifting the appeal of the tiled kitchen. The use of natural, honest materials brings warm aesthetic, especially the use of timber where a servery window connects the kitchen to the outdoors. The meals area also uses timber with double doors opening up this space for a clever converging of indoor-meets-outdoor entertaining. Stepping outside, the expansively paved and covered zone celebrates outdoor living and looks upon a tranquil grassy backyard, enjoying full privacy with complements of screening. The rear yard also houses a huge shed with workshop, separate garage and a carport to the side, all secured behind gates making this a huge plus for the tradesperson. In addition to this, off-street parking is well provided for at the front of the home. A soothing and relaxed bathroom is achieved with the incorporation of white wall tiles and glass bricks to reflect light around the room, paying homage to simple yet functional contemporary design. A rain shower, deep-soak bath, large mirror, chic tapware and stylish vanity with the added convenience of large drawers are geared around total rejuvenation. All three bedrooms are large and have built-in robes, furthermore, the home also includes a tiled laundry with huge cupboard, gas ducted heating, evaporative cooling, downlights, broom cupboard, linen press and a sizable front patio.
