Auction Saturday October 19th at 4pm (unless sold prior)
Pretty as a picture, this enchanting symmetrical bluestone villa is nestled beneath the iconic plain trees of this coveted and tightly held avenue. Cherished by the same family for almost forty years, it has been beautifully maintained and offers a versatile extended floorplan that takes full advantage of its sunny north-westerly rear aspect.
Surrounded by other character homes, the captivating symmetrical façade with an eyelash veranda is framed by a picket hedge and manicured formal hedging.
Inside, a central hallway intersects the traditional and highly versatile floorplan with period details including high ceilings, Baltic floorboards and decorative mantles.
The four principal rooms are easily adaptable, with up to four bedrooms or three plus study or second living. A renovated family bathroom includes chic black fixtures and plantation shutters.
Extended open plan has a sunny northerly orientation, with a picture bay window framing the rear garden, and glass sliders extending to alfresco dining.
The large all white kitchen includes stainless appliances, extensive shaker cabinetry, a breakfast bar and an island bench perfect for prep, working at, or sharing wine and cheese with friends.
An undercover dining terrace, edged by a vine covered pergola, enjoys views across a garden room planted with beds of clivia, Japanese box and ornamental pears, which opens through to a large lawn drenched by dappled sunlight.
The remote entry double carport with valuable rear lane access doubles as a large undercover entertaining area, whilst a utility yard is screened from view.
Inspection of this delightful home situated on the desirable Harrow Road end of Sixth Ave is highly recommended.
