From its gorgeous cottage-style facade to its luxuriously renovated interior, this hidden gem in the heart of East Maitland is hard to beat.
There's much more than first meets the eye to this stunning property, which is enviably located on a massive 986sqm block in a quiet tree-lined street, not far from all amenities.
Flourishing beds of agapanthus in front of a white fence set the tone for the classic façade of this period home, which was built in the early 1900s but has benefitted from modern renovations and modifications that make it ideal for contemporary-style living.
A semi-wraparound bullnose verandah, streamlined Colorbond roof and grey weatherboard cladding offset by crisp, white trims and vintage-style coach lights provide plenty of charm for instant street appeal, while manicured lawns and established planting frame the home in a lush, green outlook.
The traditional gives way to stylish modern finishes inside the home, which has been beautifully renovated with a neutral colour palette and premium quality fixtures to create an impressively chic family residence that is sure to appeal.
High or cathedral ceilings throughout and exposed beams in one of the bedrooms speak to the original era of the home, while a bay window and feature floor tiles in the elegant, light-filled family bathroom complement the home's period character.
The bathroom is a stunning example of melding the old with the new, with a deep freestanding designer bath and floor-mounted tapware, as well as a sleek floating vanity with twin above counter basins and 20mm stone benchtop.
The chic ensuite has been similarly styled and is sure to impress, with feature tiles and a frameless glass screen in the shower.
The ensuite completes a luxurious master suite, with a large walk-through wardrobe fitted out with hanging and shelving on both sides and cavity sliding doors separating it from both the bedroom and ensuite.
The master is one of four cosy bedrooms in this property, with all featuring plush grey carpet for added comfort underfoot, ceiling fans, LED downlighting and plantation shutters to provide a stylish finishing touch.
The children's bedrooms have mirrored door built-in wardrobes for storage, while the master and bedroom four have split system air conditioning for year-round climate control. An adjoining living area or study space with a TV connection makes bedroom four the perfect guest bedroom or teenage retreat.
An additional split system air conditioner in the open plan living and dining space ensure this area is comfortable year-round, while a wood-burning fireplace adds to its traditional charm.
This rear living hub was added on to the original house in 2017 and offers valuable space for families, with a stunning gourmet kitchen on one side and access to both the rear verandah and side covered alfresco area for seamless indoor/outdoor entertaining.
Combining clean lines and elegant sophistication, the kitchen would look at home in a designer interiors magazine, with sleek white handless cabinetry for a streamlined look, timber accents on the large island bench for added texture and a glass splashback and large window to ensure the space is flooded with natural light.
Stone benchtops, soft-closing cabinetry, minimalist pendant lights and a freestanding 900mm six-burner gas stove and electric oven add to the luxurious list of inclusions, while a well-appointed butler's pantry provides all the practical space you need with plenty of shelving, slide-out drawers, a single basin sink, second stainless steel dishwasher and recessed fridge space.
A huge laundry, spacious home office with built-in shelving and desks, and ample storage cupboards throughout complete the internal accommodation, while outside the home is designed for families and those who love to entertain with expansive covered timber decks to the rear and side as well as a huge landscaped, fully fenced backyard ideal for pets and children to enjoy.
A large, concreted space behind the drive-through semi-enclosed double garage has development application approval for an extension to the shed, while other external features include a 4000L water tank, a security system with entry cameras, automatic entry gate and new Colorbond fencing.
Ideally located in the quieter side of sought-after East Maitland, this property is close to all local amenities, just a short walk from nearby parks and recreation spaces including East Maitland Aquatic Centre and the 18-hole Maitland Golf Course at Easts Leisure and Golf, as well as the nearby high schools and childcare centre.
Less than 1km from the nearest train station for a quick and easy commute to Newcastle, the property is also close to local shops, cafes and supermarkets in both East Maitland and Tenambit, while a wider selection of retail and entertainment options are just five minutes away at the Stockland Green Hills Shopping Centre. A diverse business hub and expansive healthcare precinct surround this major shopping destination while the new state-of-the-art Maitland Hospital will offer peace of mind in the neighbouring suburb when it opens in early 2022.
