It’s a big, beautiful home full of character, warmth and sunlight and it features an extremely functional and versatile floorplan, particularly for a growing family or perhaps someone looking for a home with a value-added income.
The rear section of the property has the ability to be shut off to create a fully self-contained one-bedroom apartment for a family member or a paying guest.
The home proper features all the classic style of the 1930s era such as Tasmanian oak skirting and architraves, ceiling roses, picture rails, three working fireplaces, decorative leadlight features and ornate bay windows.
Two formal connecting living rooms are perfect for entertaining but the beating heart of this lovely home is the huge, informal sunny kitchen/family room with direct access to the fabulous north-facing deck.
From here you can enjoy beautiful afternoon sunshine surrounded by a private leafy garden featuring numerous established trees and shrubs.
There’s vehicle access and off-street parking for a minimum of four cars in the rear garden of the house with the potential to erect a double garage or extensive children's play area.
This stretch of Penquite Rd features not only the Newstead shopping hub, great schools and sporting facilities but also a growing number of medical and allied health practices.
