121 Strathmore Crescent is a place to call home! This handsome four bedroom property
is brimming with sunlight and space and enough yard for that semi-rural lifestyle. The home is set on (almost) an acre and a half and is perfectly positioned within the happy hamlet of Kalaru. It's quiet and peaceful and yet Tathra beach is just five minutes away – in fact, you can hear the ocean from the front deck! Imagine a quick surf before work, a short drive into town, bike paths and bush walks for weekend adventures… Imagine winter nights by the slow combustion fire, summers filled with epic backyard cricket… imagine making memories in this lovely home set on this gorgeous patch of land. 121 Strathmore Crescent is indeed a place to call home.
The home welcomes you in with a lovely sense of space. The open plan living area is thoughtfully designed with a stunning dual fireplace forming the heart of the home. Sliding doors make both the front and back decks into extensions of the living space and it's easy to picture the family enjoying inside-outside living. The kitchen offers sensational bench space, lots of storage and an island bench. It's a kitchen that'll handle family life and entertaining without missing a beat!
The master bedroom is something of an adults' retreat, set as it is at one end of the home. Again, there's a sliding door to the front deck – you can listen for those ocean sounds as you fall asleep! There's a built in robe and a walk in – so no need to cull the clothing before the big move! The ensuite is well appointed and the entire suite just feels spacious and inviting.
Beds two and three have ceiling fans and built in robes with bed four acting as more of a 'spare room'. The study is a good size with fantastic natural light – it could easily become a creative space for those wishing to indulge in some artistic pursuits! The main bathroom is a delight – with a decadent big tub and a separate loo (always handy).
Moving outdoors, the property is fully fenced with a solar panel gate. The kids and pets can go free-range and you won't have to worry. There's a good sized garden shed (perfect for the ride on mower and all the tools), a DLUG and two water tanks each with 13500L capacity. There's also a rumpus room/ man cave/ workshop space that adjoins the home but also offers access to the yard! Start thinking about what you're going to do with all this space!
The gardens are well established with low maintenance natives and succulents – including some flourishing proteas blooming just outside the master bedroom. Raised garden beds are ready for green thumbs to establish some new growth too. The land is gently sloping so mowing will be easy and the kids can really enjoy their slip 'n' slide! Oh and there's a friendly magpie or two who share the garden with you!
It's said that Kalaru is an Aboriginal word meaning roads to water and with 121 Strathmore being right in the heart of Kalaru, it's a home that is perfectly located for those who love their time by the sea. You can walk or ride in to Tathra – or drive – and be on the sand within minutes. Twenty minutes south and you can be at the waters of Merimbula – Bar Beach, Main, Beach, Short Point. Bega's just fifteen minutes inland and there's water there as well! The Bega River's a refreshing place on a hot summer's day and of course it's the town that offers all the major services.
Set on a quiet, family friendly street 121 Strathmore Cres presents beautifully and is indeed a place to call home!
