Super comfortable and on a very manageable 536m2 lot, this 3x1 has been wisely and lovingly transformed from a plain suburban house into a modern cottage style gem. Warm, welcoming and inviting, the home has fresh paint to walls, doors and skirtings, a fully refurbished country style kitchen, new bathroom, new vinyl plank flooring in living areas and new woolen carpet in bedrooms. There are also new blinds to windows, including the addition of roller shutters to west facing front bedroom windows, new LED lights, new front door, and security screen doors installed front and back. Outside, what was once a plain suburban lot has transformed into a prolific cottage garden. Built in 2001, the brick and iron home has a front veranda linking the carport to the front door. Inside, a comfy living area is off to the left of entry, and an open plan dining/kitchen with view to cottage garden straight ahead. A beautifully refurbished country style kitchen overlooking the rear yard is off to the left, as is a large storage cupboard with laundry tucked in behind that. A passage to the right leads to the bedrooms (two with BIR), a lovely modern easy-care bathroom with vanity and hobless shower, and a separate WC. Shading the back of the house is a wide and near full length back patio spilling out onto a good-sized, fully enclosed rear yard with a view to Mount Melville over the back fence. Here there is plenty of space for relaxed outdoor living, kids to play, lovingly tending the garden and capitalizing on wide gated access from the front of the lot. Back in the home, the ceiling is partially insulated and instant gas HWS is installed. R/C air-conditioning in the lounge is supplemented with a tile fire and gas bayonet point for additional winter warmth options. Gas cooktop, electric oven and a fully plumbed overhead exhaust fan are in the kitchen. Mains sewer, mains gas and NBN are connected. City rates are $2 287pa and water rates approx. $1 526pa. Lockyer Primary and other schooling options are a few streets away. Centrally located medical, recreational and shopping facilities are nearby. The Albany CBD is a short 5min drive away. Viewing is by appointment only. I welcome your call to view this modern and affordable cottage style home. It is sure to be popular with singles, couples, small families, downsizers and newcomers looking for good access to regional facilities.
