Cosy Federation Bungalow

If your dream is to own a double brick Federation bungalow on a budget, then this 3 bedroom home is sure to satisfy. Cedar architraves and skirting boards, beautiful original leadlight windows, high patterned ceilings, original wide polished floorboards and a tessellated tile front verandah, combine to express the essence of the era. Even the carport and lock-up garage with workshop were built with great attention to detail to harmonise with the architecture of the original home. It's location and corner position give it the potential to capture an uninterrupted open aspect by building up a storey (STCA) on a very solid base. Outdoor living includes a sunny BBQ patio nook, a lovely green level yard which is very private and safe for children. The master bedroom is quite large with plenty of room to install a sizable built-in wardrobe. The bathroom has been sympathetically modernised and includes dramatic dark tiling and a freestanding period enamel bath. Temperature is controlled with 2 R/C air-conditioners, gas heating and a working open fireplace. Currently the third bedroom is being used as a spacious formal dining room that opens to the lounge room. The eat-in gas kitchen, with a cute walk-in-pantry and servery, faces north. Participate in the fabulous Hornsby lifestyle with swimming at the public pool, tennis and golf at Asquith, cycling around Berowra and Galston, abundant schooling choices, and walking distance to the incredible infrastructure of, trains, buses, cinemas, restaurants, gyms and Westfield shopping, all this and within 45 mins of the city and the beaches.
