Overview

A little bit different, a lot to love

There are houses you scroll past, and then there are houses that make you stop, this is firmly the latter. Perched proudly on North Street, this three bedroom character home has never been interested in blending in. It has charm, a touch of quirk, and now, thanks to a fresh transformation, plenty of style to match. Behind the character exterior, things take an unexpectedly contemporary turn. The interiors are light, fresh and beautifully put together, creating a home that feels instantly inviting without trying too hard. And then there’s the kitchen. Designed to be used, enjoyed and gathered around, it anchors the north-facing living space and comes with one of those little luxuries you quickly wonder how you ever lived without, a walk-in pantry. Morning sun streams into the living area, while doors out to the deck make summer living wonderfully uncomplicated. Coffee outside before work, friends around for a barbecue, a quiet glass of something at the end of the day, this is a home that knows how to do the good stuff. There are three generous double bedrooms, giving you plenty of freedom to configure life your way, family, guests, flatmates, working from home, or simply a room where the laundry chair can live its best life. Importantly, the personality hasn’t come at the expense of practicality. Two heat pumps, upgraded insulation, new carpet, fresh paintwork inside and out, along with the new kitchen and bathroom, mean the big jobs have already been ticked off. Outside, there’s room for the cars, room to add your own touch to the grounds, and refreshingly little demanding your attention every weekend. Elevated for sun and positioned within easy reach of the CBD, it’s convenient without feeling cookie cutter. Three bedrooms, great sun, freshly transformed and absolutely no identity crisis. North Street has plenty of houses, this one has personality. Our vendors are ready to move on, so if you like your character homes with a little more character than most, come and take a look. You may just find your favourite house on the street.
