Location Map

Details

Located on one of the most picturesque avenues in Kingswood, is this large, character filled villa that has been home to the same family for over 60 years. The time has now come for the next family to create their own memories.
Entering the home through the front door, which features beautiful leadlight windows, you walk into the long, central hallway with its soaring ceilings and decorative archway. Either side of the hallway are 2 very spacious bedrooms, further along the hallway are a further 2 more bedrooms, one could well be the once chosen as the main bedroom given its size.
As you leave the formal part of the home and make your way to the rear of the home, you find the fabulously appointed and spacious kitchen at the intersection. This recently updated kitchen will make the serious cook smile with its 6 burner gas cooktop, wide oven and metres of bench space to create wonderful meals for family and friends. Leading off the kitchen is the large dining / family room with is its wood burning combustion heater that will surely heat at least half the home!
Across the hallway is a room which could be a second living area or study. This room also has a wood burning combustion heater, so very cosy on those wintry days.
The home has a family bathroom plus 2 separate toilets, one with direct access from the enormous rear garden.
The home, as large as it is, sits quite forward on the block which provides for plenty of room in the back to create more indoor / outdoor living space or install a pool.

The home was proudly owned by a family for whom family and friends was everything. They had their own produce garden which was lovingly tendered, filled with home grown produce, fruit trees and Olive trees. They even built their own pizza oven which I'm told created the most fabulous wood fired pizzas – and is included in the sale!
There are 2 sheds on the property. The one at the end of the 2 car carport has been converted into a rumpus room, but could easily be converted back to garage if needed.
The home has ducted reverse cycle air-conditioning and the previously mentioned combustion heaters with several rooms having ceiling fans, keeping the home comfortable year round. The home also has roof top solar panels.
