A Real Retro Revival

---

This is the '70s at its best. A very recent renovation has brought this excellent 3 bedroom home from dated to delightful, while still allowing many of its original features to shine. And shine they do, from the incredible leadlighting of the front door and coloured glass panes of the lounge room and verandah balustrade, to the angular architecture and timber panelled feature walls, to the North facing sunroom connecting the dining room and backyard. Add in the cool breeze block carport wall and the wide windows spanning most of the front of the house and you'll be totally won over by the unique retro vibes on display here.

A whole lot of fresh flooring, new curtains and blinds, and a generous coat of paint are just part of the transformation undergone here. A previous revamp updated the laundry and bathroom beautifully, but this time around it was the kitchen's turn. It's now conveniently modern, with new cabinetry, lighting, and subway tiling brightening up the space considerably. New appliances include a dishwasher and induction cooktop, making cooking and clean up a snap. And with a feature corner kept as a tribute to the original design, it retains the connection to that amazing vibe felt right throughout the home.

Features Include:

• Light & bright funky 1970s home with high ceilings & original features including leadlight front door panels & feature coloured glass in lounge and verandah balustrade
• Brand new kitchen open plan to dining area
• Big lounge with wall-to-wall windows & gas fire
• 3 big bedrooms, 2 with wonderful floor to ceiling windows & built-in-robes
• North facing sunroom shaded by a large almond tree - with a mass of pink Spring blooms
• New flooring throughout most of the house (kitchen, dining, lounge, hallway, bedrooms)
• Re-painted throughout, new ceiling fans in bedrooms, new curtains, new lighting throughout
• Circular driveway & double carport
• Updated bathroom & laundry with separate WC
• Studio/teen retreat
• Original brick workshop
• New rear lawn and covered paved patio
• 2,026sqm block

A separate small studio is included under the main roof and outside you will find an original brick workshop, paved patio space, pretty gardens, and expanses of lawn - including one newly laid right by the house. There's even a circular driveway and plenty of parking out the front. Yet, with a big block size of 2,026sqm the potential to add your own flourishes and dream additions is still on the cards.

Consider demolishing the old workshop and building a bigger one which could comfortably house a vintage car or caravan. Utilise the side access to build a granny flat for mum and dad or if you love a bit of a party, perhaps a new entertaining area. And there's always the option of popping in a sparkling pool and embracing an outdoor lifestyle. With this much space you can dream big. And with this amazing home you can proudly show it all off.
Some things never go out of style.
