3 1 175 m²

Whether you are looking for accommodation for students, or are a young professional wanting to immerse yourself in urban cool, or are a family who finds Observatory village life appealing, 37 Station should be high on your list of properties to view.

This lovely 1920s home is set right in the midst of Observatorys bustling life, with coffee shops, restaurants and boutiques all around. The new Riverlands Mall, with a Checkers, a Woolworths food, a large Clicks and an array restaurants, not to mention 7 kilometres of eco-running trails, takes Obs'' lifestyle options up a notch.

Enter through the front gate and step up onto a raised veranda, overlooking the Arnold Road Childrens Park and Station Road. The front downstairs reception room, on your right as you enter, is currently being used as bedroom. The room has a big bay window overlooking the veranda, and features a fireplace and solid wood floors. The room is flooded with abundant natural light.

North-facing orientation ensures sunlight fills the property throughout the day. High ceilings, wooden floors and generously proportioned rooms are in contrast to the compact proportions of the newlybuilt flats that flood the Observatory market.

Beyond this room, along the passage, is a comfortable lounge with a glass sliding door partition and double French doors opening to the garden. The American security shutters that stand sentry in the doorway can be left open in summer to allow for a the breeze to cool the home, while keeping the home occupants safe.

A convenient guest w/c with a hand basin is located off the lounge. The home is currently being fitted with a new alarm system.
