Perfectly demonstrating that a classically designed home can keep up with the times, 17 Gormly Avenue is a four-bedroom, two-bathroom red brick home in central Wagga Wagga, with a lot to recommend it.
This property has all the hallmarks of an old-fashioned Riverina home, including decorative windows, a large wraparound porch, timber accented windows, timber floors and decorative fireplaces.
“What we have on offer here is rare – a classic red brick home in mint condition that has been carefully maintained, with the original floorboards and decorative touches,” Macarthur Real Estate agent Lachlan Day says.
The property is at once a well-preserved Wagga time capsule and an example of modern, comfortable living, thanks to a contemporary updated kitchen, numerous living spaces, ducted heating and evaporative cooling, a large rear patio and a pool.
“The craftsmanship on display here is really something to admire. The build quality and the aesthetic touches go a long way to creating a special home,” Lachlan says.
“But it also has newer features like a new kitchen, with a stone island bench, soft close drawers and a 900 mm freestanding oven with gas cooktop.”
A large main suite at one end of the building provides the owner of the home with a private retreat opening out onto the back patio, which features its own ensuite and walk-in wardrobe.
“The main suite’s position at the other end of the home is great; it means that the owner of the home can really retreat somewhere secluded at the end of the day,” Lachlan says.
The rest of the bedrooms are oversized, with the same ornamental ceiling decorations and detailed cornices as the rest of the property.
Living spaces are open and welcoming, thanks to high ceilings, shining timber floors and large windows.
The first of these living spaces is a smaller, more intimate lounge space centred around an ornamental fireplace off the hallway, while the second space is a large open-plan dining/kitchen area ideally suited for larger gatherings or family nights.
Living space is extended through sliding glass doors out to an alfresco patio area, with sun-shading louvres, plenty of space for seating and a pool.
“It’s a great little private space out the back, ideal for barbecues and summer afternoons,” Lachlan says.
Positioned just five minutes from the centre of town, this property provides a lifestyle of convenience, with the best of Wagga’s dining, shopping, entertainment and schools just a few moments away.
“If there’s anything you want to be close to in town, this is the place to be; you’re never far from great restaurants, pubs, your daily shop – it’s a very convenient place to live,” Lachlan says.
Representing a life of comfort and ease in a beautifully preserved home with modern touches, 17 Gormly Avenue embodies the best of what a life in central Wagga can be.
