This mid-century masterpiece will transport you back to the 60's.
Stepping foot inside this gem is like stepping back in time. In keeping with its vintage, the 1960's Ventura home has retained a raft of original features, many of which are in pristine condition.
When built in 1959, the home embraced all the modern design features of its time. Now over 60 years later they're still in vogue and remain a credit to the one family who have lived in and loved this home and still managed to preserve it along the way.
Set on a 673sqm landholding, this is not your typical home, rather its a celebration of family living and entertaining.
Lavishly proportioned living spaces are a highlight, all harmoniously connected by exquisite terrazzo flooring. The ceilings soar high and are adorned with intricate geometric designs and the hallways, wide and welcoming. In the lounge room an extensive bank of windows fills the home with warmth and light and a delightful solid timber bar sits comfortably in the corner along with the character fireplace.
The kitchen boasts an abundance of sunshine yellow retro cabinetry complete with peek-a-boo servery into the dining room. Funky German pink tiles fill the oven recess that would easily accommodate a mammoth freestanding modern oven and around the room there is space for a family sized refrigerator. The kitchen and dining room are cleverly defined by the custom built timber cabinetry providing loads of space for storage and some quirky in built features too!
Accommodation consists of an enormous master bedroom situated at the front of the home and bedroom 2 and 3 also generous in proportion, located further down the hall with good access to the main bathroom. At the rear of the home sits a glorious sun filled room. Originally used as a sewing room due to the plentitude of light, this could easily become a 4th bedroom or study.
Relax and enjoy summer entertaining out on the spacious back terrace while the kids play in the backyard.
Downstairs there is so much potential here to value add to this home. The backyard would easily welcome a swimming pool with alfresco area and even a veggie patch. In the basement there is a massive games room, a workshop, the original laundry and a second toilet all with access to the double lock up garage. The second driveway provides loads of off street parking and allows rear access for car or trailer.
This home is a testament to the creative minds of its time, with some much more to discover viewing is a must!
