Description
65 Croydon Park Avenue is a delightful 1920's three bed terrace residence ideally located in the heart of the highly sought after neighbourhood of Marino. Since acquiring the property 10 years ago, the current owners have significantly enhanced and extended the home to create a spacious and light filled kitchen/dining/family room to the rear. The original layout has been thoughtfully reconfigured to incorporate a downstairs WC and utility room, while the house has also been insulated and replastered throughout. The front driveway has been opened to provide valuable off-street parking. In addition, a garden studio has been added offering a variety of uses. No. 65 is a charming property you can move straight into and start enjoying immediately.
Accommodation
Measuring approximately 109 sq.m / 1,173 sq.ft., the accommodation comprises a tiled entrance hallway with understairs storage and a guest WC. Off the hall, there is a sitting room to the front of the house featuring custom built storage and shelving, along with a restored vintage cast-iron fireplace with original vintage mosaic tiles which was installed in 2016. The middle room is currently used as a second reception room and benefits from a stove inset, another feature added by the current owners.
To the rear, a bright extension is bathed in natural light thanks to its west facing orientation and skylights. The stylish fitted kitchen offers an array of storage and a beautiful quartz countertop, along with a central island and tiled floor. A cleverly concealed utility area, located behind built-in units, offers additional storage and is plumbed for both a washing machine and dryer. Designed with entertaining in mind, the space comfortably accommodates family dining, while a large sliding glass door and glass wall which is triple glazed with composite frame opens out to the private garden, creating a natural continuation of the living area.
Upstairs, there are three bedrooms comprising two good sized double rooms, both with built-in storage and original cast-iron fireplaces and a well-proportioned single bedroom ideal as a child's room, guest accommodation or home office. A family bathroom completes the accommodation at this level. Attic storage, that is partially floored, is easily accessed from the landing via a pull-down ladder.
Gardens
The low-maintenance front garden has been opened to provide convenient off-street parking on a neat cobblelock driveway. To the rear, the perfectly positioned garden enjoys glorious west facing light with a paved patio and is predominantly laid in a lush lawn, creating an inviting space for outdoor relaxation and summer entertaining. The garden studio adds a valuable extra dimension, offering a range of potential uses. Pedestrian access is also available via a rear laneway.
