With a large, thoughtfully utilised block, a wealth of established greenery, and a suite of character-retaining renovations, 65 Flinders Street offers one lucky buyer a rare mix of well-preserved charm and modern comforts in family-friendly East Maitland.
Sitting on 910sqm of lush, gently sloping land, this three-bedroom property is shielded from the quiet road by high picket fencing, with dual-gated vehicle entry to the undercover carport and rear, double-car garage. Timber decking to the home's front provides a peaceful place to sit and enjoy some fresh air by the established planter boxes, while the undercover verandah offers the same experience with some reprieve from the weather during the hotter and wetter months.
Polished timber floorboards sweep throughout the home from the front entrance, complimenting the grey, white and blue palette to establish a welcoming, character-filled aesthetic that is still subtle enough to provide the incoming decorator with a versatile canvas.
The master suite sits by the entrance, extending on the same timber floorboards as the entrance hall and offering his-and-hers built-ins either side of the convenient tiled ensuite. Bedrooms two and three also sit in the front hall, as do the open design and combustion fireplace of the inviting front lounge room.
A glass door leads through to the charming timber-and-iron aesthetic of the galley-style kitchen, which provides amply in both form and function. Recycled timber panels provide stunning countertops, while smaller planks border the industrial-style corrugated iron of the shelving, creating a space that feels both modern and charming.
The open plan dining and living area that extends from the kitchen is spoiled with views of the surrounding foliage and flooded with ambient light, affording meals, family time and indoor gatherings with an enviable view, while a second, carpeted lounge provides a more intimate experience for quality downtime.
Outside, the expansive rear lawn is shaded and shrouded by extensive surrounding greenery, making for a private space to lounge in the sun or play with the kids. The children's cubby house and sandpit both keep the little ones entertained without needing to head to the park.
The backyard also has an impressive, extra-long double garage that provides ample room for all the toys, as well as a workspace to tinker away on DIY projects out of the weather.
While the large, private block and quiet street of this charming home might have its new owners feeling worlds away from the action, 65 Flinders Street benefits from immediate access to some of Maitland's most attractive amenities. Stockland Green Hills sits just 1500m from the front door, while Melbourne Street's best offerings lie just one 3 or 16 minutes away by road and sidewalk respectively.
With its character-retaining renovations, charming, subtle aesthetic, and lush, private block, this East Maitland property already represents an excellent package for a huge swathe of buyers, but it's the convenient, walkable location that makes 65 Flinders Street stand tall above so many of the current market's listings.
