Baby Got Back(yard).

Disregard the previous purchase price and leverage high vendor motivation to acquire this much-loved character home in a superb neighbourhood. Due to changes in family circumstances, an urgent sale is demanded.

This special 1930s home, tucked behind the classic picket fence with a sunny north-facing backyard, is located on a respectable leafy street and is an idyllic home in which to make memories.

The weatherboard bungalow retains characteristics of its bygone era, with high stud ceilings, native timber panelling and flooring and bay windows. A wide porch and hallway provide a good first impression, with a separate formal living room complete with a gas burner fireplace and cosy window seat. An open-plan dining area with heat pump has space for casual seating and features bifolds connecting to a private alfresco area. A full-width partly covered decking adjoins a pergola, large patio, and flat lawns within a secluded tree-lined north-facing backyard. The kitchen is a practical and harmonious open-plan layout with stainless steel appliances, incorporating a canopy rangehood, gas hob, underbench oven, and a benchtop to match. The master bedroom also enjoys connection to the deck, and all three bedrooms have built-in wardrobes. A family bathroom and a second combination laundry/toilet will keep the peace for the busiest of households. There's a large freestanding double garage and ample off-street parking. Fenced and gated, the picturesque landscaped grounds have lush flowering foliage, mature trees, and lofty palms. The 766 sqm (approx.) section, zoned Mixed Housing Urban, adds appeal to the visionary to refurbish further or to exploit the zoning and transform the whole site.

Just minutes from popular nosheries including Burnt Butter and Browne Street, and a short walk to nature reserve, Avondale College, Unitec, and the train station, the property also sits close to motorway ramps for an easy run in and out of the city.
