And yes, I do mean parkside, because not only is this home cute as a button, packed with original character features and enveloped by delightful cottage gardens - but it is also right across the road from the expansive Akuna Street Park! Say goodbye to sitting on the deck and staring straight into the opposite neighbour's living room and say a big HELLO to nothing but leafy vistas over your morning coffee from one of the most serene locations in Chapel Hill. Outdoorsy buyers and families will love having acres of parklands right at your fingertips, complete with playgrounds and sports fields for the kids plus bike paths to the city for the avid cyclist, while those looking for a more metropolitan lifestyle can rest assured that 10 minutes' walk in the other direction you have all the essentials you could need and more in bus stops, restaurants, cafes and amenities at Kenmore Plaza! Meanwhile, the home itself is nothing short of delightful. First time to market since its construction in 1964 and complete with original narrow-plank hardwood floors and raked ceilings plus a great split-level layout separating the bedrooms from the central, open plan living / dining / kitchen, it is easily move-in ready while also offering the potential for a refresh, renovation or extension if DIY is on the cards for you. Or if you're just looking to keep the location and change all the rest, the 620 square metre block poses a fantastic opportunity for a knockdown and rebuild of your dream home exactly as you like it. A home such as this with so much character and charm in such close proximity to Akuna Street Parklands will draw no small number of eyes from young families, first home buyers and all manner of buyers - so be quick to view while you can!
