Mid-century 1970's homes fabulous floor plans were unique, with the open-plan living style quickly becoming the "in thing". These days their solid bones make them a sought-after renovator's dream.
This much-loved, one-owner home, designed and built-in 1973 for a large family, is like a 70's-time capsule with many hallmarks of the era like floor-to-ceiling windows; split levels; a huge formal lounge and dining room dominated by a soaring Oregon-lined ceiling with a skylight over the central planter box and a balcony overlooking the front garden. The expansive kitchen, dining and family areas include an extra-long kitchen bench, large walk-in pantry, built-in wall units and a servery window to the adjoining covered patio.
Sleeping accommodation includes the main bedroom isolated from the action, off the front entry foyer with a walk-in robe and roomy ensuite.
Towards the rear is a separate study and three oversized children's bedrooms accessed via an open lobby. Each funky shag-carpeted bedroom features one wall of built-in robes with dressing table and another wall lined with study desks & cupboards.
The four-room bathroom configuration of a separate shower, bathroom, powder room and WC kept the early morning rush to a minimum.
The residence enjoys optimum storage with built-ins (including a sewing desk) lining the laundry.
Outdoor entertaining must have been high on the family's agenda, evidenced by big glass sliders opening from the lounge and kitchen to the covered and tiled barbecue terrace.
Outbuildings include a double carport, a single garage / workshop tucked in the back corner.
The elevated 1014 (approx.) m² block has established gardens and feature stone retaining walls, meandering paths, shady trees, and shrubbery maintained by a sprinkler system.
