'GWYNFA' - AWAITING HER NEXT CHAPTER!

Web Ref#FGB1065

Named "Gwynfa" - meaning "a blessed or happy place" - this striking Art Deco home has undoubtedly lived up to her name throughout many treasured years as a much-loved family home.

Behind her eye-catching facade sits a home brimming with character, history and possibilities - now ready for someone with the vision, energy and enthusiasm to write her next chapter. Built in 1937 and generously proportioned at approx 172m2 (excluding garage and pool room) this three-bedroom home is packed with unique period features.

Ornate ceilings, decorative plasterwork, beautiful timber detailing, lead-light windows and charming bay windows offer glimpses of the elegance she once proudly displayed.

There is no shortage of space, with a formal living room, an impressively large dining room that could easily become a second living area, plus a spacious kitchen adjoining a relaxed TV or family room. Beyond the double garage is a substantial 40m2 (approx) bonus room complete with a built-in timber bar... think pool room, rumpus, games room, sleepout or the ultimate entertaining space!

There's no disguising it - she needs work. Roll up your sleeves, bring your imagination and uncover the potential beneath. Renovators, DIY enthusiasts and character-home lovers will relish the opportunity to restore her former glory, while developers may see exciting possibilities within the substantial 1,012m2 section.

And the location? It's hard to beat. Not often a large property so close to town becomes available, its literally a couple of minutes' walk to town, everyday conveniences are virtually on your doorstep!

(Any subdivision or development potential is subject to council approval, and purchasers are advised to undertake their own due diligence.)
