Sensational back patio for relaxed living

Loved and lived in since purchased new in 2004 by its current owner, 15 Stokes Terrace is ready for a change of hands.<br/><br/>Neat, tidy and sturdy throughout, the 3x2x2 brick and tile home on a level, easy care 544sqm lot on a super quiet street close to the centre of Albany has a 2nd living area and sensational outdoor area for entertaining.<br/><br/>Added to this, shopping, recreational, medical, and educational facilities are very close-by. Middleton Beach is less than 5km away.<br/><br/>Entry to the home is via portico protected double front doors. Use one door for functionality, or two for grandeur!<br/><br/>Inside, the tiled foyer opens out to a carpeted living area on the left. On the right, is the main bedroom suite. Straight ahead, through a pretty, glazed door is a large open plan tiled kitchen/living/dining area forming the beating heart of the home.<br/><br/>Here the kitchen is defined by a coffered ceiling with down lights over an island bench. The fridge, free standing 4 burner gas stove with bench space on either side, pantry and internal access to the secure double garage are opposite.<br/><br/>On the other side of the island bench is a generously proportioned, informal living area. A sun-drenched dining area is on the northern side of the room and spills out to the patio which wraps the full NE section of the home.<br/><br/>This patio is superb. It provides more than 37.5sqm of additional protected outdoor living to the family area. With alfresco blinds rolled up, light floods in and the modestly proportioned rear yard expands. Rolled down, the area becomes contemplative, private, and secure. A perfect space for youngsters to play, stylish outdoor entertaining or relaxed family barbecues.<br/><br/>Back inside the home, also off the informal living area, is a separate wing comprising two carpeted family bedrooms with BIRs, a tiled bathroom, a large laundry, and a separate WC.<br/><br/>Sited well away from the family living areas, the carpeted master suite overlooks the pretty, front garden. It has a wall of BI robes, and a large tiled ensuite with bath, shower, vanity and WC adjoining.<br/><br/>Externally, the garage provides drive through access to rear yard. In the garden there is a fabulous lemon tree for the home cook, raised garden beds for salad greens and herbs, and quality paved pathways for getting around the home safely.<br/><br/>Mains gas is connected, the ceiling wool insulated, a heat pump HWS installed and security screens on all doors. Controls to the 3KW solar panel system and reticulation are in the garage. City rates are approx. $2567pa and water rates approx. $1489pa.<br/><br/>This house if fabulous. There is nothing left to do except for new owners to make it their own. look forward to sharing it with you soon.
