The home you've been waiting for!
Mid century and new have been combined seamlessly at 48 Ruskin Road. One of the most exquisite examples of a three-bedroom home I have seen in Newlands. The home has been improved on via some thoughtful upgrades & installations. The current owners have (not all inclusive by any stretch):
• Replaced the roof, spouting and downpipe in 2020
• Installed full double glazing
• Installed full insulation (yes this includes the walls)
• Installed a new HRV
• Undertaken extensive paint work
• Installed new French doors
• Upgraded the carpet
• Upgraded the shower and vanity
Meticulous care has been taken during renovations. The kitchen has been tastefully designed & modernized. There is a connected feel with the living spaces while having sight out onto the yard to keep an eye on the playing children. The room off the rear of the kitchen neatly houses the laundry while also doubling as a butler's pantry. Both a fireplace & heat pump to keep warm in winter, you choose.
The modernised home is only matched by the tract of land it sits on. An impressive & predominantly usable 1,040 sqm. French doors lead to decking from which a beautifully cared for flat lawn sprawls. On the western side is another usable & sheltered lawn space. While up above is space just asking to be further developed. Currently it contains a hot house & raised garden beds which could be easily added to. The home & yard boasts gorgeous morning sun & beautiful sunrises over Newlands - imagine enjoying your coffee while watching Tui dart in & out of the native bush that surrounds the property. Elevated & private.
The garage is over 40 sqm in size! Currently used as both a place to house vehicles & a gym, this space is ideal for a multitude of uses. Only 10 mins drive to the city, a walk down the hill to the bus stop & Newlands Primary School with the College close also. Newlands New World & the Johnsonville precinct also near.
