The classic weatherboard bungalow will always hold strong appeal for those who appreciate timeless native timbers, character, and the generous proportions typical of the era. This thoughtfully modernised family home, positioned on an exceptional street close to St Heliers Beach, is no exception. Offering a relaxed yet stylish sense of comfort, the home sits on an approximately 611sqm freehold site zoned Mixed Housing Suburban, providing potential future options for buyers to explore.
The neutral, tastefully refurbished interior combines original character with contemporary comfort. Timber floors connect the home’s generous living spaces, while a large formal dining room, charming sunroom, and versatile family room provide plenty of space for everyday family life and entertaining.
Flooded with natural light from two garden bay windows, the stylish kitchen features stainless steel appliances, a breakfast bar, and a servery opening through to the dining room. Three bedrooms with built-in wardrobes include the main bedroom, complete with a ceiling fan and doors opening directly onto the covered veranda. Two bathrooms provide excellent practicality, including one with a frameless glass shower and floating vanity.
Discreetly nestled behind established trees, the north-facing brick-walled front courtyard creates a sunny and private haven for outdoor entertaining. At the rear, an elevated deck takes in sweeping urban views and overlooks fenced lawns with room for children and a trampoline. Additional storage is provided by a freestanding shed, while the double carport with sectional door adds secure off-street parking.
Zoned for St Heliers School and Glendowie College, with St Ignatius Catholic School also nearby, this character-filled home enjoys an outstanding position within easy reach of Dingle Dell Reserve, St Heliers Village, cafes, restaurants, and the waterfront.
