Description
Tucked privately amongst native bush with birdsong as your backdrop, this beautifully updated 1920s home offers rare flexibility on an expansive 6,316m² section.
With 5 bedrooms (two currently used as an office and a downstairs lounge) and 2 bathrooms (one with bath), the layout easily adapts for multi-generational living, Airbnb/rental income, or small-business use—including an insulated, powered 11m² space in the large garage already set up a dog grooming business.
There’s even room to build: two sets of dwelling plans are available to share (subdivision/build options subject to council approval).
Inside, the home balances character and comfort: the 1920s wooden feature windows anchor the living zone’s charm, while a recently upgraded kitchen delivers modern practicality with granite benchtops, 4-burner gas hob, new cabinetry, Westinghouse oven, and rewiring as part of the upgrade.
The kitchen window and double doors to the back deck are double-glazed, extending open-plan living out to upper and lower decking and a sunny patio—perfect for entertaining with bush views as your backdrop. Gas central heating and thoughtful insulation upgrades keep things cosy.
Outdoors, you’ll find space to roam, raise chickens or whatever you fancy, and soak up the tranquility.
Despite the seclusion, you’re by a bus stop and in good school zones—the best of both worlds.
Why you’ll love it:
- Flexible living: 4/5 bedrooms + office, 2 bathrooms (one with bath), open-plan living, multi-gen and income options
- Work from home / small business: lower-garage office (11m²) with power, insulation & new rewiring; area currently used for dog grooming; convert the garage to a gym with ease
