In a quiet cul de sac and standing out from its much newer neighbours this pretty as a picture circa 1910- villa will delight all who appreciate the character and quality craftmanship of a bygone era. With a polished native timber staircase and floors, stunning leadlight windows and doors, inviting interior and outdoor spaces strategically positioned to make the most of beautiful sunsets and sweeping water views, this is a home that invites you to hang up your hat and stay. Spread over two levels there are three bedrooms upstairs, two with water views, plus a family bathroom and a toilet ensuite and walk in robe off the master ensuring all family needs are catered for, as well as a bedroom, bathroom and an office downstairs making it a breeze to accommodate overnight guests or extended family. The roof is new and the whole place has a feeling of being lovingly lived in. If you're not feeling inspired by shiny new builds which are hard to tell apart, you are going to love this house. You'll have contemporary hosting down to a fine art with the open-plan kitchen and dining room that opens out to a sheltered patio; perfect for alfresco lunches and weekend barbies. The outdoor areas are easy care low maintenance with decking and brick paving so no need to lug a lawnmower around on the weekends and those with green fingers can make use of the large planter box to keep the kitchen supplied with fresh herbs and veg. There is so much to love about this location; it's handy to parks, Oakley Creek, a cycleway to the City plus Point Chevalier shops and the beach are within a hop skip and a jump. It really is the perfect city fringe location. Our owner has lived here for the past 18 years and loved every minute but it's now time to downsize and allow a new family to enjoy all the benefits of this charming home and popular neighbourhood. Make sure you put this unique and special property on your viewing list today and you won't be disappointed. Agents bring your buyers
