This charming heritage style family home, originally built in 1949, is comfortable, well-appointed and is ready to move straight in.
Warmed by a new Brivis gas central heating system and including quality Miele kitchen appliances, the home is light and bright, with garden outlooks from every window.
Its upper storey features views of Mounts Ainslie and Majura and sunsets on Black Mountain to the West. Living areas include an elegant sitting room, with formal dining, a large country inspired kitchen with picture window onto the deck and garden, and a cosy snug.
There are 6 good-sized bedrooms (two downstairs, including a large main complete with ensuite bathroom), three bathrooms, and a study with views of the mountain. The solid brick garage includes a built-in work-bench, high vaulted ceilings and is spacious enough for a studio/workshop complimented by dual access from the front and the rear.
The East-facing deck is large and sunny in winter, with good shade in summer. The garden is private, well-planted and easy to maintain (including a large tank for dry times). Including quiet, shady corners for reading or bird-watching (over 50 species observed in the garden), and sunny, open spaces, the home is perfect to be able to switch off during the quiet times.
Enjoying a secluded location in a quiet neighbourhood, yet just walking or biking distance to Braddon and New Acton and everything else that comes with an Inner City location. 12 Faunce Crescent has been a family home to just three families in over 70 years - this is a rare opportunity to buy into the heart of the bush capital.
