Get a whole lot of house – and land – for your dollar in Upper California Gully Road. This 1,218m2 property spans from its frontage to Vinton St at the rear, providing easy back-gate access to the local primary school. The cream brick home is largely in original condition, and from right back in the day, was built for entertaining. Big rooms, and lots of them, offer a flexible floorplan and space for a family to grow. Enjoy taking up residence and working to make your mark, and in turn, make the home your own. A neat front garden with concrete paths and edging sets the scene for the expansive façade. From the porch, enter into a wide hallway. Note the high ceilings of the era. To the left are three bedrooms, all with built-in-robes. The bathroom has its charms, with its matching lilac bath and basin, plus a toilet and separate shower. The living spaces are a real surprise. A huge front loungeroom enjoys a sunny northerly aspect. It’s been updated with a modern vinyl plank floor, plus downlights, a gas heater and ceiling fan. A second living space at the back of the home would make the ideal rumpus room. In between is an open-plan dining room and kitchen, with a retro light fitting and vinyl tiled floor. The kitchen is likewise of the era, with original cabinetry, including an overhead glass display case. A wall oven is in good order. Lastly, an extensive enclosed sunroom off the back of the home provides a year-round play space for all ages. It has another wood heater, and is encased with floor-to-ceiling glazing. Beyond the high hedge outside is an inground pool that’s ready for some attention. Spend the cooler months restoring it in time for summer. Anyone with energy, creativity and a nose for potential will love the unique features and epic proportions of this one-off property. Bring your ideas and enthusiasm to a viewing!
