Offered for the first time in half a century! This stoic Italian family home displays incredible quality and a rare opportunity for discerning buyers wanting to renovate or develop (STCA). Built in the 1970s over a 7-year period, the high level of quality and care taken with the construction is evident throughout. Each brick was laid with laser-like precision, with notable features including ceramic tiles and decorative light fittings, imported directly from Venice.
A cherished family abode for many years, comprised of four comfortable bedrooms, each with built-in wardrobes and beautiful recycled hardwood floors. Main bathroom is highlighted by ceramic tiles, shower and bath, with separate toilet. There is even a laundry chute, which conveniently connects to the downstairs laundry!
The lower-ground level combines both work and play, where time in the garage was well spent, tinkering with bits and bobs, while the rumpus suited a more relaxed environment, warmed by the open fire pizza oven. The cantina was essential for home brews, salamis and prosciutto. In addition, the separate shower was cleverly utilised for a quick rinse after work or after playing in the backyard.
An abundance of mature fruit trees is to be expected for any good property from this era. Discover fig, olive, orange, lemon, grape vines, room for veggie patches, chook shed and the 40-year-old walnut tree towering above, providing welcome shade in the summertime. The front garden provides vibrant colour all year round with various roses, rare camelias, stunning magnolia starlet, rhododendrons, and fuchsias. Whether you are an avid green thumb or not, the benefits of the lush established gardens are certainly appreciated.
Many happy memories have been made here and this home has served the family exceedingly over the decades. Now they pass the baton on to the next lucky buyer, to encapsulate their own vision and bring it to life in one of Berwick’s best and most tightly held pockets.
