The best of both worlds, beautifully crafted heritage residence, built as Commonwealth Printer's residence which has been significantly extended by architectural design, and fitted to a luxury standard. Ideally located in a wide leafy street, just moments to Kingston Foreshore, restaurants, the lake, Manuka and the business districts of Fyshwick, Deakin and the City Centre, surrounded with pockets of parkland and within excellent school catchment zones.
Surely to be attractive to many demographics, this quality single level home opens to a formal entry foyer, then peels off in the original double brick section, to two very large bedrooms, striking modern bathroom and a front sitting room and or 4th bedroom with open fire place. Polished timber flooring, towering ceilings, picture rails and stunning double hung timber windows highlight the 1920's character.
Then be set for the 'wow' extension. A magnificent addition to this home, including an informal meals area, sensational fully integrated Miele kitchen with its gas cook top, double side by side ovens, dishwasher, not to mention crisp white stone bench tops, glass splash back and access on to a gorgeous side courtyard.
Vaulted ceilings, a wall of glass to the North and expansive in its proportions, the dining room spills into a huge lounge room and the out onto the side deck. Perfectly segregated to the back, the sumptuous master bedroom suite is serene and private, with excellent built in storage and magnificent en suite, complete with Japanese soaker bath, walk behind shower, double vanities and complete wall of recesses mirrored storage.
Outside is beautifully manicured yet relatively easy care. To the front, white standard roses, weeping cherries and crimson crepe myrtles border a lush lawn and contrast against the bagged and painted exterior.
