Offered to the market for the first time, 168 Manners Street is a beautifully maintained brick and tile home that showcases the distinctive style and craftsmanship of the 1960s. Combining generous proportions, comfort and character, this quality residence offers a warmth and appeal that modern homes often struggle to replicate.
Positioned in a picturesque street surrounded by quality homes, the property is within easy walking distance of local schools and shops, making it an ideal choice for families or those seeking a convenient lifestyle.
The home features four spacious bedrooms, three with built-in wardrobes. The main bedroom with natural north-eastern light through its windows, creating a welcoming retreat.
Designed well ahead of its time, the generous updated kitchen overlooks the covered outdoor patio, making it perfect for entertaining family and friends. It offers ample cupboard space, a walk-in pantry, an electric oven and a gas cooktop, providing both functionality and style.
The comfortable lounge room features reverse-cycle air conditioning, polished timber floors beneath the carpet, and large windows thoughtfully positioned to capture the warmth of the winter sun.
Accommodation is complemented by two bathrooms. The original bathroom is conveniently incorporated into the spacious laundry, while the second bathroom includes a walk-in shower and a beautiful leadlight feature window.
The remote-access garage provides internal access through the laundry and continues the home's unique architectural styling. A 2.88kW grid-connected solar PV system adds energy efficiency and ongoing savings.
Set on an impressive 1,985m² fully fenced block with valuable side lane access, the grounds offer endless possibilities. Outdoor improvements include a powered workshop, bunkhouse with rainwater storage, garden shed and a covered entertaining area complete with a wood stove and open fireplace. Established trees and gardens create a private oasis, while a large paved entertaining area beneath a mature shade tree provides the perfect setting for gatherings.
Homes of this quality, character and size are increasingly difficult to find. Lovingly cared for and offered for the very first time, this is a rare opportunity to secure a home with timeless appeal, exceptional space and enormous potential for future growth.
