The charm of yesteryear


This circa 1920s bungalow boasts an elegant, timeless, facade and is conveniently positioned in one of Mount Eden's most esteemed locations. Character-filled and boasting all the charm of yesteryear, it retains many of its original features, with a front entrance porch complete with a stained-glass accent, high board and batten ceilings, abundant windows, and polished timber flooring. Nestled on an expansive 771m2 section encompassed by established trees, it offers a functional single-level floor plan with an ideal flow between indoor and outdoor living.
A central hall feeds into three front bedrooms. The well-proportioned master suite boasts an outlook over the front lawn and features a large wardrobe and an ensuite. The additional two bedrooms are serviced by a family bathroom complete with a shower and a tub. The functional kitchen is well-appointed with plentiful storage and preparation space. It flows seamlessly into a generous lounge room that is awash in sun and natural light. It opens to a sun-drenched deck overlooking the rear section. The adjoining dining room caters for formal or informal entertainment and features an original brick fireplace and a large ceiling rose that adds to its endearing appeal. An additional sunroom could be utilised as a media room, a study, a playroom, or similar. A separate laundry completes the floor plan.
The rear section is ideal for alfresco entertainment on a balmy summer evening. The deck steps down to a private lawn that is framed with well-maintained hedging and established trees. A huge four-car garage incorporating a workshop provides ample space for storage and hobbies and there is plenty of off-street parking.
