Description
Step into a rare slice of history with this incredibly warm and well presented Art Deco gem, a four-bedroom, two-storey masterpiece constructed in the late 1930s by renowned local craftsman, Bob Lynn. This beautifully maintained home showcases reinforced concrete block construction throughout both the interior and exterior, offering timeless durability alongside its vintage charm.
Over the years, it has undergone thoughtful enhancements, including exterior cladding, insulation in the internal walls, underfloor space, double glazing to majority of the home, and several well-planned extensions.
Approaching the property, you’ll be greeted by a beautifully landscaped garden and a charming pathway complete with a fishpond leading you to the entrance.
Inside, the attention to detail is unmistakable, from the stunning woodwork to the sun-drenched open-plan living, dining, and kitchen areas that effortlessly extend into a secluded backyard oasis. The ground floor also features a versatile extra room perfect for an office or second living space, as well as a bathroom, a games room or library, and a spacious laundry.
The kitchen has been beautifully updated making it a real stand out feature! It is nice and vibrant with a splash of red and a black feature wall, quality appliances and stunning hardwood floors.
Upstairs, four generous double bedrooms await, each tastefully designed, with the master bedroom boasting access to a private balcony—where you can relax with a quiet morning coffee or unwind in the evening.
Comfort is assured year-round with a gas fire, a heat pump, and underfloor heating in the games room and three of the bedrooms.
This gorgeous home is a true standout, combining Art Deco with modern comfort and style. It offers a unique blend of character, history, and modern living that doesn't come to the market often.
Don't miss your chance to experience this stunning home - and step into a world that is truly one-of-a-kind!
