City family living in a peaceful, leafy setting

A gorgeously lush front garden featuring an inviting deck and an irresistible daybed delivers a beautiful introduction to this 3 bedroom home’s welcoming spaces. On a corner block, this home is surrounded by lifestyle attractions including a park directly across the road. Proximity to schools, parks, sporting facilities, great deli’s and the Millers Junction precinct ensures enjoyment and desirability in every direction.

Facade & Garden

For some homes the front garden is merely a means to an end – a way of getting to the entrance but little more than that. Here the story is beautifully different. The appeal of this property begins with the lush leafiness of a garden that creates a sense of calm and features a fabulous day bed and a welcoming, covered deck where alfresco entertaining can be enjoyed in serene surroundings. 

Living Room

The personality of this home, clearly established by the garden approach, is confirmed by a living room where the size will make you smile and the character of timber floors, high ceilings and decorative cornices reflects the residence’s 1950s origins. The look is classic, the mood is up to date and the outlook over the deck brings a sense of the outdoors in. Split system heating/cooling unit ensure total comfort is delivered.

Kitchen/Dining

A space that’s linked to yet distinct from the living room, the kitchen/dining area is an ideal everyday zone that lends itself to easy entertaining whenever the mood or the occasion arises. Its timber laminate floors enhance the modern, low-maintenance personality of proportions that incorporate a kitchen equipped with a gas cook-top, dishwasher, ample cabinetry and a service window to the breakfast bench.

Sunroom

To the rear, positioned to appreciate the light and enjoy its own outdoor access, this versatile space lets you relax when it’s used as a retreat and enables you to achieve with efficiency when it serves as a study or home office. Now that working from home has become a major part of so many people’s lives, the flexibility of a zone like this has become more of an asset than ever before.

Bedrooms

Three inviting bedrooms begin with a main bedroom where a substantial window provides a lovely view to the front garden’s leafiness while a built-in robe is an ideal accompaniment. All the bedrooms feature ceiling fans and the main bedroom as well as the third bedroom are further enhanced by external pull down shade blinds for extra comfort during the summer months.

Bathroom

A freshly presented bathroom featuring a large, deep bath is complemented by the convenience of a separate toilet and a separate laundry as well as the efficiency of a gas hot water system. The bathroom, toilet and laundry occupy their own zone of a floorplan that illustrates how effectively a c50s design can stand the test of time and meet present day priorities with ease.

Outdoor Entertaining/Garden

In addition to the front garden’s exceptional appeal, the rear outdoor space represents a private retreat on an allotment that also has landscaped garden beds, a dedicated vegetable patch, planter boxes and a water tank. The opportunity to appreciate the afternoon sun from the north westerly rear aspect adds to the attraction while a storage shed and the provision of car parking access from second frontage to Hobbs Street are valuable extra elements of the ideal address. 

Location

The convenience of this corner block is outstanding! There are lifestyle attractions in every direction! The allure starts before you’ve even left home as WJ Irwin Reserve and its playground facilities – soon to be upgraded – greet you. St Leo the Great Primary School, Altona North Primary School plus Altona North Kindergarten are all within walking distance and all the shops and services of Millers Junction including the home-maker centre and Reading Cinemas are nearby. Altona Lakes Golf Course, the leisure centre and pool, the Bayside P-12 College Paisley campus and bus routes to the city further enhance the setting – but best of all are the neighbours! The community vibe of a street full of fantastic people makes Fourth Avenue a way to live rather than merely a place in which to live.
