18 Kingston Road, Camperdown

Much larger than it appears from the street, this freestanding single-storey Victorian home stands on a deep block with a sunny back garden featuring an alfresco dining area, level lawn and double off-street parking accessed from Kingston Lane.

With an appealing facade & pretty bay window, the house retains its traditional layout in the front section, while the rear has a spacious modern extension flowing onto the garden.

High ceilings and polished timber floors add character to the entrance hall and three double bedrooms. Other appealing period details include plate rails in the hallway, and a patterned ceiling in the main bedroom.

At the end of the hall is the spacious family living zone comprising an open-plan gas kitchen (with timber cabinetry) adjacent to dining & sitting areas opening onto the garden. Filled with natural light, this living space has large expanses of glass, a skylight, gas heating bayonet and terracotta-tiled floor.

Freshly painted throughout, the house also has a white-tiled bathroom (with shower above the bath), a laundry with second toilet, and a fireplace and gas-heating bayonet in the main bedroom. Although well presented and immediately livable, the interiors have scope for modern updates.

Close to RPA Hospital, Sydney Uni and city buses, the property is conveniently near three beautiful dog friendly parks (Camperdown Park, O'Dea Reserve, Camperdown Memorial Rest Park) with children's playgrounds and picnic areas.
