The timeless appeal of a red brick Californian Bungalow is brought beautifully to modern life with "Kalimna," a home of heart-warming elegance and only a stroll from the centre of Albury.
Brimming with heritage charms including airy 10-foot ceilings, lead lighting, ornate cornices, ceiling roses, timber picture rails and parquetry floors.
All these features are seamlessly blended with the latest comforts courtesy of a high-end and comprehensive renovation, including fresh paint and new carpets throughout.
The irresistible streetscape draws you to its welcoming front porch with tessellated floor tiles, and through to a graceful central hallway.
The three bedrooms are generously proportioned, with the sumptuous master also offering decorative ceilings, an open fireplace and a remodeled ensuite.
The open-plan family and dining space leaps straight out of the pages of House and Garden.
There is a gorgeous gas log fireplace framed by stunning built-in shelves and drawers and flanked by a wall of rich French doors.
At its heart is the magnificent bespoke kitchen, with innovative cabinetry, pendant lighting, and premium appliances including a Belling 1100mm double oven and a Zip Tap, with Carrara marble countertops and splashbacks.
The custom cabinetry and marble also make their way into the updated family bathroom, there's a storage loft in the attic space, plus ducted gas heating and reverse-cycle cooling systems for year-round relaxed living.
Naturally the outdoor living and entertaining is splendid, with those French doors opening out to the private undercover indoor / outdoor area with stacking double-glazed windows, and you and your guests will love the inground solar heated plunge pool in the warmer months.
Setting "Kalimna" even further apart is the amazing self-contained studio designed to mimic the main home, complete with its own porch, French doors, a kitchenette, a full bathroom and abundant room for a king-size bed, making it the perfect guest bedroom or office.
There's also ample space for a furry companion or two thanks to the 758 square metre block, two garden sheds, a 3kw solar system, 3-phase power, a SLUG and a carport, and a smart-phone activated irrigation system.
Proximity to the finest schools and the Albury central business district complete a truly peerless offering.
"Kalimna" means "beautiful", and never has it been more apt.
Located within walking distance to the excitement of Dean Street Albury with restaurants, cafes and nightlife at your doorstep.
