First time on the market in 48 years!
A much-loved family home for almost five decades, this charming Lockwood home was built for its current owners in the 70's, and proudly stands the test of time. It's brimming with potential!
Brimming with potential, this sturdy four-bedroom home has undergone a few changes over its lifetime, particularly the sunny upstairs extension completed in the 80's, which added two bedrooms, a bathroom and a second family living space for the kids to enjoy. The laundry also resides upstairs, with easy access down to the back lawn below.
Downstairs retains much of the original character look of the Lockwood house with its all-wood interiors. The kitchen offers plenty of storage space and room to move, with the added benefit of two sinks and a water filter; while the cosy living room (with fireplace) and adjacent dining room offer great flow out onto the deck - cleverly built around the native trees growing there at the time to create privacy and shade.
Down the corridor, you'll find the master bedroom with deck access, a small office (which could easily be reverted back to the bedroom it once was) and the main bathroom. Renovated a while back, this fully-tiled bathroom has the bonus of underfloor heating - perfect for those crisp winter mornings!
Out the back, you'll be wowed by the plentiful fruit trees, which offer delicious oranges, grapefruits and feijoas for its owners to enjoy. There's also a small workshop and a carport under the house, as well as plenty of space to store the trailer and firewood under shelter.
Oozing with character and filled with potential, this reliable Lockwood home awaits a new owner to stamp their mark on it and give it a fresh new look! In zone for Long Bay College and just a short drive to the local shops, this is definitely a must view for any astute buyer wanting a reliable home they can add value to.
