This bungalow's classic façade gives little away as to the features and sheer sense of space that lies beyond its white picket fence and arbour. As you would expect from a home of this era it's full of charm and character, from the fretwork and dark timber architraves to the wall strapping and ornate ceilings. An upper-level extension has created a bright and spacious extra living space along with three of the five bedrooms, second bathroom, and a handy carpeted loft retreat. Back downstairs, the floorplan opens at the rear to a brand-new timber deck that's covered for all-seasons alfresco entertaining against a backdrop of northern sunshine, and a studio with its own kitchenette and bathroom adds further appeal.
